• Language Guide for Germany’s DEL

  Filed under Hockey Language Guides
  Feb 20
  A great many of the Ontario Hockey League alumni find themselves in Europe, pursuing careers in hockey. It becomes a necessity to learn a little bit of foreign language in order to follow your favourite players as they play in non-North American countries.

  This is the first in a series of hockey language guides at OHL Alumni Central, geared to help the fan of OHL grads navigate around a foreign language hockey website. Although this particular guide is specifically for Germany’s DEL, the German phrases are somewhat universal throughout the German speaking countries of Europe.

  What follows is 55 common and important words to be found on official team websites throughout the DEL.
