Spot that is. He rounds-out the Euro squad. Looks like Marcus went for experience. Niels is a tough customer.
Opening line i saw was: EU -233, US +162So now that we have the fields, what odds have the English Bookies listed?
Don't think they care either.but, but, but .............. they don't know yet whether it will be Deuel or Eberle on our team.
I have a bad feeling that Team USA is in for a long week. Hoping for the best but even a competitive match will be welcome.
Team Europe is only one person different from last year: Replace Ouschan with Filler. Of course, Filler is the hottest player in the world right now, but Ouschan was Europe's strongest player last year, so there's not a huge difference in teams.

It has always struck me as odd that Niels does not get the recognition I believe he is due.
He is one of the most successful players out there, with top shelf palmares, spanning decades.
He is a well-rounded player, too. Plays all games at a VERY high level.

Its a malaprop.
another word I had to look up:thumbup:
Haha.
Doing both will let you know palmares is not an appropriate word for me to have used.
A pretty strong team when you have no room for Thorsten. Seems like he always gets the short end of the stick with Team Europe.
What is played/not played? Made team but didn't play?that's a great point jay
considering how skilled and accomplished toasti is
I wonder why he hasn't appeared more at mosconi
euro players with three or more mosconi appearances (played/not played):
