Cologne –
The Kölner Haie have confirmed that striker Maxi Kammerer (24) is moving within the DEL from the Düsseldorfer EG to Cologne. With the KEC he will receive a contract valid until 2023 and his shirt number 19. “Maxi is a strong striker who fits very well into our system,” says Haie trainer Uwe Krupp. “We already had contact before last season and are happy that the opportunity now arose to bring him to Cologne.” Kammerer himself explained: “Uwe Krupp looked after me very early on, and we had good conversations. I am very convinced of the concept that was presented to me. “
In the Cologne offensive, Kammerer is said to occupy the position that became vacant since Frederik Tiffels moved to Munich. Kammerer was DEL Rookie of the Year in the 2016/2017 season. In 2018 he signed an entry-level contract in the NHL with the Washington Capitals, for whose farm team Hershey Bears Kammerer completed 33 games. After the season he returned to Düsseldorf. In 210 DEL games, the left-shooter scored 48 goals and prepared 64. His father, the former professional Axel Kammerer, was the Haie’s co-trainer in the 2002/2003 season.
