Previous Meetings this season:

18/11-07 Wolfsburg vs. Adler Mannheim 5:2

16/09-07 Adler Mannheim vs. Wolfsburg 2:3 (OT)

Defending champion Adler Mannheim lost all 3 games against new promoted Wolfsburg this season. Mannheim sacked Greg Poss after the embarrasing 4:7 homedefeat just before christmas.

Dave King is their new head coach (he coached Canada in Olympics '84 '88 '92, Calgary Flames and Columbus in the 90s) - Mannheim won the first game with King 7:2 against Düsseldorf and also left a good impression with a 3rd place at Spengler Cup with wins over Davos and Pardubice last week. They should get back on track today after they lost their both away games in 2008.

When you look at the table 3 points against the distant team Wolfsburg would be very helpful to keep in touch with the 6th place and avoid the pre-playoffs (7th-10th place).
