NHL Phenom Joins Germany's World Championship Squad
Germany imposes strict requirements for World Cup hosting
Get your popcorn ready, ice hockey fans! German powerhouse Tim Stützle, the superstar forward for the Ottawa Senators in the NHL, is finally ‘all in’ for the 2025 IIHF World Championship, hosted in Sweden and Denmark! While the tournament kicked off with Team Germany's initial games, Stützle's presence will be delayed until he hops on a flight this weekend – once he wraps up his NHL season and ties up all loose ends to join the national team.
Stützle last represented Germany in the World Championships back in 2022, and his comeback to the international stage marks his sophomore appearance in this prestigious tournament. His decision to join the squad was a result of drawn-out negotiations with both the Ottawa Senators brass and Germany's national team, and he couldn't wait to suit up for the team after the NHL playoffs closed for him.
As for his training schedule, Stützle has been grinding it out with his good buddy and fellow NHL phenom, Moritz Seider, during the offseason – both of them playing for Germany. The specifics of his training regimen with the national team remain under wraps, but it's clear he'll jump right into the deep end once he's on the ground in Herning.
The coach and sports director are ecstatic about Tim's participation – with good reason! This talented lad adds a hefty dose of firepower to their roster. Mark your calendars, folks – Tim Stützle's World Championship comeback will go down in Sweden and Denmark around mid-May 2025. Simply can't wait!
