Daniel Janser 2,167 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Graphic courtesy of Leandrofg (Marcel's stats/Daniel's stats) At the time of writing this article, London is facing a loss in the Continental Cup finals, whereas Seattle is one win away from their 14th title. The first since S83 when they broke Vancouver's winning streak. However, the old saying goes that the last win is the most difficult one. So there is still hope for London to premier as a title holder. Our correspondent John Holmes has had a chance to talk to Marcel, to feel out what the state is in the United locker room. John Holmes (JH): 'Marcel, London is facing elimination in the finals. How is the general atmosphere in the lockerroom?' Marcel Janser (MJ): 'Hi John. Well, I would be lying if I said we are happy with the losses. Once you made it to the finals and a cup is up for grabs, there can only be one goal. However, we are still confident. We gave the Bears a run for their money in every match, losing twice with only one goal difference. In hockey that is practically a coin flip. One game was lost with two goals difference. So we were never shot out of the stadium and kept the games close.' JH: 'So where do you see the pros and cons for each team?' MJ: 'Well, we are enthusiastic to finally have gone beyond the first round. Further, if you look at the scoring race, we have the more productive players and with the exception of Nalwa and me, no-one has won a title. So everyone is hungry for that ring. For Seattle there is of course their history and the experience of their players. Four players in De Groot, Lamb, Hogan and Kovalchuk have won a cup before. The latter two were already part of Seattle's last cup-winning team. We will see what selection of perks is a recipe for success.' JH: 'Thanks, Marcel for these insights. Good luck.' MJ: 'Thanks for having me, John.'
