Roman Josi is in sparkling form.
But where will Roman Josi stop? The Bernese defender has indeed, and for the third time in a row, delivered three assists during the victory of his Nashville Predators against the Toronto Maple Leafs (6-3). Josi has scored 22 points in his last 9 matches. He now has 75 points (17 goals/58 assists) in 60 games played this season.
The other Swiss players were not left out on Saturday evening. Nico Hischier scored a goal and delivered an assist on the ice for the Edmonton Oilers. But the New Jersey Devils, who led 3-2 in the 44th thanks to the goal of Haut-Valaisan, collapsed afterwards and lost 3-6.
Kevin Fiala, for his part, delivered an assist during the Minnesota Wild’s victory against Chicago (3-1). This brings his season total to 55, a personal best for the St. Gallen winger.
