Hischier<\/a> scored a goal and added two assists in Switzerland’s 3-0 win over Italy in Olympic qualification round action Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Devils<\/a> center set up Philipp Kurashev for what proved to be the game-winner just 79 seconds into the first period, then helped provide insurance tallies on two Swiss power plays. Hischier’s own third-period goal was his first of the tournament, and through four games, he’s produced four points. He’ll likely need to come up big again if Switzerland’s going to have a chance of upsetting Finland in the quarterfinals Wednesday.<\/p>\n
