Rick DiPietro lost his first game for SC Riessersee in the Bavarian Alps 4-1 (EN). The team tried to keep things positive, though: "Bei Torhüter Rick DiPietro konnte man sehen, dass er noch ein bisschen Zeit der Eingewöhnung braucht. Axel Kammerer nahm den Torhüter der NY Islanders in Schutz: 'für ihn als Torhüter ist die Umstellung wesentlich schwieriger, er braucht noch ein paar Spiele'". "You could see that Rick DiPietro still needs some time to get used to things. [Coach] Axel Kammerer defended the NY Islanders goalie, saying: 'The transition is much more difficult for him as a goaltender, he still needs a couple of games'". The article also described the first two goals as "unlucky", so maybe there is more to hope for than just a few friendly excuses.

In his first game for VSV, Michael Grabner scored once shorthanded and had an assist (+1) in a 4-3 victory over Dornbirn. The video shows all of this and a breakaway (no goal) as well as an interview at the end (glad that they won, that he meshed well with the team, and his goal and assist are the "bonus"). Here is the scoresheet.
