ERC Ingolstadt Retains Forward Krauß for 2025/26 Season
Ingolstadt Extends Agreement with Forward Krauß (Forward Krauß's Deal with Ingolstadt Renewed) - Ingolstadt extends deal with forward Krauss
Get ready, hockey fans! ERC Ingolstadt has made a splashy move by keeping forward Johannes Krauß on board for another year. The Bavarian powerhouse, hailing from the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL), has extended Krauß's contract, ensuring he'll be a key player in their roster.
Krauß made his way to the Donau in the sweltering summer of 2024, trading in his home team ESV Kaufbeuren from the DEL2. In 61 gripping games with ERC, he notched a sweet nine points, with four dazzling goals to boot. He also suited up for eight games for Ingolstadt's cooperative partner and DEL2 vice-champion, the Ravensburg Towerstars.
"Johannes has shown remarkable progress in his first DEL season and proved to be a solid asset on the ice," said sports director Tim Regan, giving Krauß a warm endorsement. "He snagged more ice time as the season went on, and we're banking on him taking giant strides forward, playing an even bigger role in our team."
Although the specifics of Krauß's expanded role and performance expectations for the upcoming season remain under wraps, it's crystal clear that the team sees great value in his contributions. As a forward, Krauß will undoubtedly be tasked with contributing offensively, participating in special teams, and maintaining his defensive responsibilities. With the team's recent change in personnel, he'll have to adapt to new strategies and team dynamics to help ERC Ingolstadt dominate the Deutsche Eishockey Liga.
