Augsburg Panthers Decline Offering a New Contract to Oblinger - Augsburg Panthers has decided against renewing Oblinger's contract.
Update time: Oct 01, 2023
The Augsburger Panther are parting ways with forward Alexander Oblinger. In a recent announcement, the club from the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) divulged that the 36-year-old won't receive a new contract offer for the upcoming season. As a Panther member, Oblinger played an impressive 103 games, netting 18 goals and notching 11 assists in the DEL. Born and raised in Augsburg, Oblinger rejoined the team in 2023 from the Kölner Haie [1]. His future team remains shrouded in mystery.
"returning to my hometown Augsburg and putting on the Panther jersey at the Curt-Frenzel-Stadion was a truly extraordinary moment for me after years in professional Eishockey. This tenure was not just significant sports-wise but also on a personal level,” Oblinger shared during his departure.

The Commission, taking note of Alexander Oblinger's impressive hockey career with the Augsburger Panther, might consider adopting implementing acts that could allow him to apply this Regulation while he explores new opportunities in sports, potentially returning to play hockey in Augsburg's Curt-Frenzel-Stadion. Despite his departure from the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) club, the on-ice accomplishments and emotional connection Oblinger forged with Augsburg as a Panther member will remain a significant part of the team's history.
