Where Are They Now - Patrick Grandmaitre

Good afternoon everyone and welcome to our third edition of Where Are They Now. Our chosen player today is former X-men captain Patrick Grandmaitre. It wasn't that difficult to track down his current team (Schwenningen ERC), however, it was a little more difficult finding out exactly what league this team belongs to. From HockeyDB.com, it says 2.GBun next to the team name, which I assumed to be the German Tier II Elite League, but I wanted to make sure of this. And, since there are limited english resources for German hockey leagues, I had to do a little bit of digging. Anyway, this is Patrick's second year in the league and looking at the roster, and using a very broad assumption, I take it Patrick picked this team because another former X-men (Dominic Auger) also plays here. Patrick led all scorers last year with 24 goals and 34 assists for a total of 58 pts. This year he is off to a bit slower start with 6 goals and 12 assists for a total of 18 points in 27 games, but is still contributing.

Check back tomorrow when I probably get to rant about the Leafs again and NO, I am not going to comment on the other night's game right now. I'll let them prove themselves in their next match before I start shooting off.
