Unfortunately for Lua Niehus, the 2024 IIHF Word Junior Championship ended early. The German defender suffered an upper body injury in the game against Finland. U20 national coach Tobias Abstreiter had to make another nomination for the German squad. Paul Mayer, who has already completed the preparation with the team in Füssen and Gothenburg, will join the team today and wear the number 5 on his shirt.
The Deutscher Eishockey-Bund (DEB) wishes Lua Niehus a speedy and good recovery.
