It's not like the country has its own language. EDIT: Seems he spent some time with the West Germany team, but I still don't see how he's German. He's Canadian, and he also is a citizen of Switzerland. Edited February 25, 2021 by Eleven Quote

I cant speak to the fluency of it, as I know no German, but the thirty second YouTube video I just watched shows he’s got some grasp on it. Guess it depends on how Vichy Habs ownership is if that’s good enough. Quote

It's mainly divided among French, German, and Italian, with, of course, regional variances of all of the three. Quote

See, here I am feeling like I finally got the joke I was looking for and I feel like it whooshed. Might have been a little forced on my part. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Ralph were a polyglot. Gotta have something up there keeping out the hockey knowledge. 1 Quote
