Yeah, Germany has been on the periphery of international hockey greatness for quite a while. I predicted both the Germans and the Swiss would cross over into the perennial elites about 20 years ago, and although it never happened, both programs have remained solid. Plus, I love your jerseys. :)

I wonder how good the Soviet Union would be if they were still around. Now they're split up into 15 different teams.

That's a good question. Russia already has a very rich pool to choose from, so I don't think the strength of the best team they could field would increase TOO much, but rather, like Canada, they could more reasonably produce multiple squads with terrifying power if such a thing were allowed.
