Ten games, a small victory, no points: the results of the Swiss delegation in North America on Saturday evening are heartbreaking. It is not Pius Suter who will be blamed for not having tried. The Zurich native tried his luck seven times during his quarter-hour on ice with Detroit. In vain. The Red Wings still lost 7-4 to Toronto’s Auston Matthews.

No more success for the best Swiss scorer in the League. Timo Meier and his 47 points skated twenty minutes all round against the Florida Panthers. Without being able to avoid Sam Bennett’s winning goal in overtime (5-4). San José however led 3-1 then 4-2 at the start of the third period. The Sharks record is perfectly balanced: 22 wins for 22 losses (including three after extra time).

Janis Moser’s Coyotes found themselves on the losing side for the 33rd time this season. The sheet of the former HC Bienne defender was credited with a +/- of -2 and a minor penalty. Arizona ended up taking Buffalo’s 3-1 law.

To find the only trace of a Swiss winner on Friday, it was therefore inevitable to turn to the duel between the New Jersey of Nico Hischier and Jonas Siegenthaler and the Carolina of Nino Niederreiter. Hurricanes who made the difference in the first quarter of an hour, before managing their advantage (2-1). This is already their thirtieth successful exercise.
