Career

player

Pascal Müller began his career in 1997 with the elite A-Juniors of SC Langnau . In the same season he made his debut in National League B (NLB) for Langnau and was able to celebrate the NLB championship title and promotion to National League A at the end of the season. In the following season he completed eight games for the junior team, but established himself in the NLA squad in the course of the year. Until the middle of the 2000/01 season he played for the team, which has now been renamed SCL Tigers, in the NLA before moving to EV Zug . With the EVZ he almost always reached the playoffs in the following years, but could never reach the final.

Before the 2006/07 season , Müller moved to HC Davos , as HC Davos did not have enough defenders under contract after the departure of Brett Hauer and Michael Kress and Jan von Arx's doping ban . In December 2006 he won the Spengler Cup with HC Davos and became Swiss champion with the same team in April 2007 . After Beat Forster signed on , Müller asked HC Davos to terminate his contract and joined the ZSC Lions in mid-January 2009. After the 2010/11 season, his contract with the Zurich team was no longer extended. Therefore, Müller moved to within the league for HC Ambrì-Piotta . At the end of his career he played at EHC Kloten .
