Red Bulls sign forward Nikolaus KrausThe Vienna-born player moves from vice-champion KAC to Salzburg// ROSTER UPDATEEC Red Bull Salzburg has signed winger Nikolaus Kraus. After center Andrew Rowe and defenseman Nash Nienhuis, Kraus is the third new addition for the upcoming season.
The 27-year-old native of Vienna played for one season with the EC Red Bull Salzburg junior team at the age of 15. He then continued his training with the Cologne Sharks. Kraus made his professional debut in the 2015/16 season with the EC-KAC, where he played a total of nine seasons and won the win2day ICE Hockey League twice with the team.
Last season, Kraus scored 27 points in 58 games and reached the league final with the EC-KAC. In the decisive game 7, however, his team was beaten 2:6 by the Red Bulls.

"We are very pleased that the opportunity has arisen for us at this point in the year to win Niki for our team. He is a very good skater who will bring a lot of speed and energy to our game. Last season was his best season in terms of points. At 27 years old, he's in the prime of his hockey career, so we don't think he's reached his full potential yet."
Nikolaus Kraus
"I am extremely excited about the new challenge, and I am coming to Salzburg to win a title. I'm looking forward to the entire organization and my teammates, as I've known many of them since I was a child and am good friends with them. But I'm especially looking forward to the field hockey and a successful time on the ice. I'm a physical and fast player who plays and loves modern ice hockey - and that's exactly what I want to show in Salzburg."
