Streit Pushes for More Swiss Stars in NHL
Mark Streit, the trailblazing Swiss defenseman who paved the way for guys like Josi and Hischier, speaks out on growing the pipeline from the homeland to NHL rinks. He knows the talent exists in spades, from the SHL grinders to those dominating Swiss leagues, but the leap remains brutal without the right scouting push. With NHL GMs scouring Europe more than ever, Streit's call carries weight in front offices from Tampa to Nashville, where Swiss success stories already boost playoff rosters.
