Andreas Nödl (born February 28, 1987) is an Austrian professional ice hockey player who currently plays for the Vienna Capitals of the Austrian Hockey League (EBEL). He previously played in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the Philadelphia Flyers and Carolina Hurricanes.

Playing career

Nödl played two seasons with the Sioux Falls Stampede of the United States Hockey League (USHL) before moving on to the St. Cloud State University Huskies after being drafted in the second round, 39th overall, of the 2006 NHL Entry Draft by the Philadelphia Flyers. In his second season with the Stampede, he led the team with 59 points in 58 games. Coincidentally, Nödl is not the only Austrian-born player to play for the Stampede — Thomas Vanek, now of the Minnesota Wild, spent three years with the club. Kristof Reinthaler also played a year for the Stampede and Patrick Divjak currently plays for the Stampede.

After starting the 2008–09 NHL season with the Flyers' farm team, the Philadelphia Phantoms, Nödl was called up to the NHL on October 21, 2008.[1] On December 23, 2008, in a game against the Ottawa Senators, Nödl scored his first career NHL goal in a 6-4 victory.[2]

On November 29, 2011, he was waived by the Flyers and picked up by the Carolina Hurricanes.[3]

After initially returning to Europe as a free agent, signing with HC Lausanne of the Swiss National League A, Nödl was released prior to the season and would split the 2013–14 campaign in his Native Austria with EC KAC and EC Red Bull Salzburg.

On October 16, 2014, Nödl belatedly signed on as a free agent with fellow EBEL club, the Vienna Capitals.[4]

International play

In 2009, Nödl represented Austria in the IIHF's World Championship in Switzerland.
