Josis Nashville and Fialas Minnesota are holding the playoff course

Almost all Swiss are in action in the NHL on Friday night. Only Roman Josi (Nashville), Kevin Fiala (Minnesota) and Nino Niederreiter (Carolina) can be really happy.

Roman Josi contributed an assist with the Nashville Predators in their 4-1 home win over the Anaheim Ducks. Nashville won for the third straight year and is on course for the playoffs.

Fiala wins against Suter

Kevin Fiala also had an assist for the Minnesota Wild and a goal decided the penalty shootout. Minnesota won in Detroit (with Pius Suter) after a 2-4 deficit, 6-5 after a penalty shootout. Minnesota can also expect to reach the playoffs.

And the other Swiss? Nino Niederreiter’s Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Colorado Avalanche 2-0 and, as leaders in the Eastern Conference, are sure to make it to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The remaining teams with Swiss involvement – Chicago (with Kurashev), Arizona (with Janis Moser), Detroit (Suter), New Jersey (with Jonas Siegenthaler and the currently injured Nico Hischier) and San Jose (Timo Meier) – all face the playoffs to miss – which opens up opportunities for national coach Patrick Fischer for the World Cup in Finland in May.
