Oliver Setzinger (born July 11, 1983 in Horn ) is an Austrian ice hockey player who has been under contract with the EC Graz 99ers in the Austrian ice hockey league since July 2016 .

Career

Oliver Setzinger began his career in the youth division of WAT Stadlau before moving to the Tampereen Ilves Juniors in 1999 . Most recently he played in Finland for the HPK Hameenlinna . Setzinger was drawn in the third round of the 2001 NHL Entry Draft as a total of 76th by the Nashville Predators . From 2005/06 to 2006/07 he played with the Vienna Capitals . In May 2007 he signed a contract with the NHL team Nashville Predators, but was given before the start of the season to the Milwaukee Admirals , the AHL farm team of the Predators. Since he was rarely used with the Admirals, he moved to the SCL Tigers in the Swiss National League A in January 2008 .

In October 2009, he hired his agent to find him a new club because he was dissatisfied with his situation with the Tigers. At the end of October there was a player swap with HC Davos , which gave the surplus Alexandre Daigle to the Tigers. In November 2010, Setzinger moved to HC Servette Genève on loan .

In January 2011, he prematurely extended his contract with Lausanne HC, which had been running since summer 2010, for another three years. The Austrian won the National League B championship with the Vaudois in 2013 and then achieved promotion to the National League A with the team.

In November 2014, the EC KAC signed Setzinger after Jan Urbas left . In the play-offs he became the second-best goalscorer for Klagenfurt behind Jamie Lundmark and signed a new contract after the end of the season until the end of the 2016/17 season. In 2015/16, Setzinger was also one of the Klagenfurt players with the highest points. He scored the most assists among the domestic players and the sixth most in the league in the regular season, while he was the second best Austrian and tenth best scorer in the league on points. In April 2016, however, the KAC surprisingly announced that it would make use of a release clause in Setzinger's contract and part with the striker with immediate effect. Since 2016 he has also played for the EC Graz 99ers in the EBEL.

In the main round of 2016/17, Setzinger scored 61 points, making him the most points Austrian and fourth highest scorer in the EBEL. With his 41 assists he was also the second best assists in the league behind Corey Locke from VSV. For the first time since the 2012/13 season, Graz qualified for the playoff.

International

In the junior division, Setzinger first played at the U18 B World Championships in 1999 and 2000 , when he was the top scorer of the tournament, and the U20 C World Championship in 2000 . After switching to the current division system, he was at the U18 World Championships in Division I 2001 and the U20 World Championships in Division I in 2001 , 2002 and 2003 , when, as the top scorer and best preparer, he made a significant contribution to the advancement of the Austrians into the top division , used.

Setzinger is a regular for the Austrian national team . He made his debut on April 25, 2000 in the 1: 4 defeat in the friendly against Belarus in Minsk . He was in the Austrian squad at the 2002 and 2014 Winter Olympics and the qualifying tournaments for the 2002, 2006 and 2010 Games , as well as at ten World Championships ( 2001 to 2005 and 2007 to 2011 ). So he experienced the 2005 World Cup and Austria's relegation as an active player in his own country. Overall, he rose with the Austrian national ice hockey team four times from but also twice again. At the 2008 World Cup , he was selected as the top scorer (together with his compatriot Dieter Kalt and the Briton Greg Chambers ) and best preparer in the all-star team of the A group of Division I. Also in 2010 he was the best preparer together with the Ukrainian Andrij Michnow and, behind the Ukrainians Kostjantyn Kasjantschuk and Michnow, the third best scorer in the A-group of Division I. After relegated at the 2011 World Cup in Slovakia, Setzinger made a verbal all-round blow against the ÖEHV on, whereupon the latter excluded the Lower Austrian from the national team. In a clarifying conversation between Setzinger and the ÖEHV tip in the person of Dieter Kalt senior in November 2012, differences of opinion were cleared out of the way. A few days later, Setzinger made his comeback in the national team when he played against France at the Euro Challenge in Ljubljana. So far, however, he has not returned to world championships.
