Defenseman Alec Rauhauser was the only Florida Panthers player who saw action in Europe on a slow Sunday for hockey.
Rauhauser made his sixth appearance of the season for DVTK Polar Bears, a Hungarian-based club playing Slovakia’s Tipos Extraliga.
The 25-year-old, who was signed by the Cats on March 26, set up Tamas Reszegh’s game-opening goal in the Polar Bears 2-1 win over HK Dukla Michalovce.
Rauhauser now has two goals and three assists and +4 rating in his time with DVTK.
Aleksi Heponiemi and his Swedish club MODO Hockey were supposed to take on AIK in HockeyAllsvenskan, but a recent covid-19 outbreak on AIK forced the game to be postponed.
Heponiemi leads MODO in scoring with 12 points (4G/8A) in 14 games. The club is off until Wednesday when they face Vasby IK.
