The three played together in a series of attacks by the fans as the "young wild ones" was called. Patrick Reimer stood out from the series, and after he had scored 10 goals and 12 assists in 52 games, his playing time was "extended" a bit, as he went to the second division EV Duisburg under the funding license regulation and was promoted with this could make it into the DEL.
