Title: Standout Performers and Setbacks for the Berlin Polar Bears
Shining Stars
Serge Aubin (48), the team's coach, steered the Berlin Polar Bears away from relegation last season and guided them back to the top. Aubin's impressive work earned him an extended contract for two more years.
Forward Marcel Noebels (31) continued being the epitome of reliability. With a tally of 10 goals and 14 assists, he emerged as the top scorer.
Despite joining the team from Munich - champions of the league - Cologne native Freddy Tiffels (28) has thrived. His "change of air" has significantly improved his performance, as he tallied 9 goals and 8 assists as a national player.
Blaine Byron (28) strengthened the team following his return from Sweden in the summer, netting 9 goals and 8 assists.
Manuel Wiederer (27), a versatile forward from Deggendorf, has proved his worth, playing almost anywhere except in goal. His potential for future success is apparent, as national coach Harry Kreis recognized his value by nominating him for the Germany Cup in Landshut, and he also has a good chance of being selected for the World Cup in May.
Tobi Eder (25), who transferred from Düsseldorf, quickly adapted to his new surroundings, netting eight goals without any trouble.
Kai Wissmann (27), widely recognized as the best German defender in the league and the team's captain, has been an invaluable asset to the Eisbären.
Unexpected Turns
Goaltender Jake Hildebrand (30) has proven to be consistently impressive despite averaging statistics upon his arrival from Frankfurt.
Young defender Korbinian Geibel (21) has shown courage and speed, frequently taking on a leadership role.
Disappointments
Leon Bergmann (25), who was once a promising forward, suffered an injury to his syndesmosis ligament, which will keep him sidelined for several weeks.
