Uwe G. Krupp (born June 24, 1965 in Cologne, West Germany) is a retired German professional hockey defenceman and current coach of the German national ice hockey team. Following Walt Tkaczuk, Krupp was only the second German-born player to have a lasting career in the National Hockey League. Krupp was the first, and up until now, still remains the sole player of his nationality to ever win a Stanley Cup. He also followed Tkaczuk as the second chosen to an NHL All-Star Game. He was the tallest player in the league for nearly seven years, towering at 6'6".
