The offensive star is thus entering his eighth season with the Rittner Buam SkyAlps. In these seven years, Öhler has played 321 games, contributing 124 points (48 goals). Last season, the Ritten native, who also played on loan for HC Pustertal in the ICE Hockey League during the 2023/24 and 2024/25 seasons, appeared in 39 games and recorded 15 points (six goals).

“Manuel brings a lot of speed, energy and commitment. His qualities on both sides of the ice make him an important addition to our team,” said the two sports directors Dan Tudin and Alexander Eisath, pleased with the latest confirmation of a local player who, through his experience, is also expected to be crucial in the locker room and serve as a role model for the young Ritten players.
