Today at 1 PM Eastern, Team USA plays its first game in Europe. At the SAP Arena in Mannheim, home of Adler Mannheim (DEL), where they’ll take on the German national team with NHL players such as Leon Draisaitl (Edmonton Oilers), Dominik Kahun (Chicago Blackhawks) and Korbinian Holzer (Anaheim Ducks). For the prospect watchers, there’s one interesting name on the German team in Moritz Seider, who is expected to be drafted in the first round this summer.
Team USA has three Rangers players in Brady Skjei, Chris Kreider, and newly acquired and signed Adam Fox. Projected first overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft Jack Hughes is also on the team.
