Niederreiter skorts for the first time after a shock trade

The trade from Nashville to Winnipeg came as a shock to Nino Niederreiter. At least now there is a first sense of performance on the ice against the Edmonton Oilers. The Chur striker captured the mark for the Winnipeg Jets’ second goal in the power play and delivered the decisive pass to leading scorer Mark Scheifele. The first goal in his second game.

But it is bitter that his team is already hopelessly behind on this point. The goal is to make it 2:6, and in the end it’s a 3:6 bust. The Canadians are already 0:4 behind in the middle of the game.

So while Niederreiter arrives so slowly, another Swiss has to wait after his trade. Timo Meier is not used to the New Jersey Devils yet, he could make his debut for the Devils on Sunday with the Arizona Coyotes.

The Devils must accept another setback. In the defeat in Vegas, they grit their teeth on a strong keeper. Golden Knights goaltender Adin Hill had to save 46 shots to win, eight of them in overtime. New Jersey Swiss goalkeeper Akira Schmid saves 24 shots; in the penalty shoot-out, the fourth attempt of the Las Vegas team, the only one that Schmid could not stop, brought the decision. Schmid’s teammates Nico Hischier and Jonas Siegenthaler remain without a goalscorer.

Janis Moser also admits defeat – yields a scorer point. At 1:6 at home against the Carolina Hurricanes, he has his stick in play at 1:3. After 62 games, the 23-year-old defender has 23 score points. (SDA/dti/SME)
