Nothing can shake the "Iceman"

November 14 2018

Field Kre defender Garrett Noonan brings nothing from the rest. The Playoffs are his purpose.

"Noons", as him his friends shout, is the rest itself. With the hockey and in the private life. Apparently nothing can bring the 27-year-old American from Norfolk, a suburb of Boston, from the tact and thus he also concerns his tasks with the field Kre of penguins. From the NHL team Nashville Predators gedraftete defensive specialist decided after three years in the farm teams to the step to Europe which he has not regretted. After one year in Zagreb (EBEL) he changed in this summer after field Kre. Why he betrayed in the WZ interview.

Why have you decided on field Kre and the DEL?

Garrett Noonan: I had already spoken several times in the past with Matthias Roos, but it had fitted only in this summer. The DEL is one of the big leagues in Europe and I is to be been gladly now here. Field Kre has got many good players in this season and part of this team is to be been splendidly.

What was your nicest hockey experience?

Noonan: These were my years in Boston University. A big honour is to be played for this team. My last college year I might still carry "C" on the tricot.

Which other sports, except hockey, do you interest?

Noonan: Gulf, baseball and American football are beside hockey which pursued things I, however, most intensely. My favorites are the New England Patriots (NFL) and Boston Red Sox with the baseball. These have become just for the ninth time masters.

What is your biggest hockey dream?

Noonan: I would like to win once a title. It would be miraculous if it worked in Germany. Why not in this season with the penguins? For this purpose we must give every day and every play everything.

And your expectations of the season 2018/19?

Noonan: As a team the clear purpose the Playoffs and then very near of the mastery is to be come. What I can contribute to it, every play everything is to be given and to fight hard for the team.
