GDT: Relegation • Game 2 • Jan. 3 • Germany vs. Switzerland

[Eagle Eye Cherry]

Yes! I wanted the Swiss to win.

Kinda unrelated but I was wondering when the Swiss team plays, do all the Swiss players speak German to each other or French or Italian or all of them at same time? It's a country of 3 languages.

 

[Exarz]

Phew, thank god the Swiss made it! It will be a tough D1A with Germany, Latvia and Norway!

 

[ozo]

He is. The 96ers will be the oldest guys then.

Cool, thank you. Hopefully, Belarus will get one over Danes next year and that will start to kick start their hockey and get more dual nationals like Kodola and potentially Karnaukhov return to the Belarus lineup.

Looking at the names I'm pretty sure that all but two of them have German as the mother tongue so I'd imagine they speak that

Actually, it's a country of 4 official languages, although the last one (Romansh) is only used by like 0.5% of the population.

Good for Switzerland to win and Belarus for becoming part of the big group for next year.

Rod, Fuchs, Descloux, Waeber and Fazzini are not from the German part.

They probably speak English during meetings and on the bench.
