Career

Rissmiller started his career in 1998 at the College of the Holy Cross in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference , a league in the game operations of the National Collegiate Athletic Association . The American stayed with the college for a total of four years and was one of the team's leading players. In his first year of play, he managed to be elected to the league's rookie team after scoring 41 points in 34 games. Two mixed seasons followed, in which he could not achieve any improvement in the points and templates compared to his first year in the league. Only in his last season in the MAAC did Rissmiller improve and scored 46 points in 33 encounters, making him the best offensive player of the year.

After his last season at college, the undrafted American moved to the Cincinnati Cyclones in the East Coast Hockey League . In his first two games for the team he got four scorer points, which brought him to the American Hockey League , the Cleveland Barons , who at that time - like the Cyclones - were the farm team of the San Jose Sharks . Rissmiller also fitted in well there and ended the season with 40 points as the team's seventh-best scorer. In the following season, the striker continued the good performance with the Barons and was appointed to the NHL squad of the San Jose Sharks for the first time during the 2003/04 season , after they offered him a professional contract valid for the NHL in the summer of 2003 had. Overall, Rissmiller ran four times for the Sharks, but without booking a single point.

In the following two seasons, Rissmiller gained further experience in the AHL with the Cleveland Barons due to the lockout in the 2004/05 NHL season and the well-staffed squad of the Sharks, and set franchise records for most of them with 117 assists and 181 scorer points Assists and scorer points in the jersey of the Cleveland Barons. Only at the end of the 2005/06 season he was back in the squad of the NHL team, where he ultimately established himself. In the 2006/07 and 2007/08 seasons , in which Rissmiller played 79 of 82 games this season and scored a total of 39 points, the coaching staff retrained him as a defensive striker. After the end of the season, the American's contract ran out, whereupon he moved to the New York Rangers as a free agent . Here, however, the attacker could not prevail and found himself in the stands early in the season. Eventually he was sent to the Rangers' AHL farm team, the Hartford Wolf Pack . There he finished the 2008/09 season and began the following before he was committed by league rivals Grand Rapids Griffins .

On August 1, 2010, he was handed over to the Atlanta Thrashers together with Donald Brashear . At the end of February 2011, shortly before the trade deadline, it was given to the Florida Panthers in a transfer deal . In July 2011 Rissmiller signed a one-year contract with the Colorado Avalanche , but played exclusively for the Lake Erie Monsters in the AHL. As a result, the American had further engagements with the Worcester Sharks and Rochester Americans in the AHL, before he moved to Italy to Ritten Sport between 2013 and 2015 . There he won the Italian championship once and the Coppa Italia twice .

After retiring in the summer of 2015, he returned to North America, where he has since been responsible for talent training in the extended coaching staff of the New Jersey Devils .
