Career

In 2004 Daniel Oppolzer made his debut in the German junior league for SC Riessersee . There he completed three seasons and also came to 17 games in the first team, which played in the major league . For the 2007/08 season , Oppolzer moved back to his home club ESV Kaufbeuren , where he played in both the Oberliga and the Junior Bundesliga. After promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga , the striker became the team's top performer and was one of the best scorers. This finally attracted the interest of the Iserlohn Roosters from the German Ice Hockey League , who had been watching him in previous years. For the 2010/11 season , Oppolzer received a three-year contract with the Sauerland . After a year with the Roosters, in which he could not meet expectations, he moved back to the second division to the Bietigheim Steelers . In July 2012 he moved to the EC Rote Teufel Bad Nauheim , with whom he was Oberliga master in the 2012/2013 season and was promoted to the DEL2 .

In January 2015, he then moved back to his home club ESV Kaufbeuren.
