Benjamin Nissner on the way to his best professional season“I just do what I can to help the team” // InterviewThe forward is playing his fourth season with the Red Bulls and is getting better and better. As an agile centerman with a clever game and an eye for his teammate, but also - and more than ever - as a goalscorer. But he is not making a big deal of it.
42 ICE Hockey League games, 19 goals and 22 assists. Plus 10 CHL games with 7 assists. That is Benjamin Nissner's current performance in numbers. That makes the Vienna native Salzburg's top scorer at the moment, just 2 points shy of his peak in the 2021/22 season, even if he doesn't put much stock in it himself: “I don't think about that too much. I just want to play my game and stick to the system.”

I just want to play my game and stick to the system.”
You could almost see how the 27-year-old has improved from season to season in Salzburg. His calmness in critical situations and ability to make the right move or play the right pass are impressive. But he has also had to work hard. Like last season, when an illness took him out of the game completely for two months in the basic round.
We interviewed him and wanted to know, among other things, how he assesses the current sporting situation, why things are going so well for him and why he is looking forward to the playoffs.
