Possler connects again for DIF

Gustav Possler continued to ring up points with his new club over the weekend, scoring a goal off a nice individual effort and adding an assist as Djurgarden IF improved to 2-0 in Champions Hockey League action with a 6-0 win over HC Davos.

Possler made it a 3-0 affair in the second period of Saturday's contest when he took a pass at center ice, broke into the zone down the right side and scored with a wrist shot for his second goal in as many games.

(A brief clip of the goal can be found in my Twitter feed.)

Elsewhere, Victor Olofsson went without a point as Frolunda HC aqvenged last weekend's shootout loss with a 5-2 victory over Dynamo Padubice. The win advances FHC into the playoff round of the Champions Hockey League. Olofsson has one goal, a game winner, through the first three games with his new club.
