The Riverkings have thus also signed their second-best scorer for another year. The 30-year-old native of Stuttgart scored a strong 46 points in 35 games last season. Sporting director Michael Grundei on the forward with extensive DEL2 and Oberliga experience: "Lars is an important player for us, and not just because of his point total. With his understanding of the game and his demeanour, he can lead a line very well. He is one of the main pillars of our young and hungry team."
"We're on the right track with our development, but we're nowhere near the end yet," says Grözinger himself. "We want to take another step forward in the coming season, and I want to play my part in that. With our sensational fans behind us, both home and away games are a lot of fun. We will work hard again in the summer to play at least as successful a season."
