Career
Coming through the youth ranks of Düsseldorfer EG, he made his debut in Germany's top flight Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) during the 2010-11 season.[1] He joined EHC München of the DEL after two seasons of major junior hockey with the Barrie Colts of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL). With NHL aspirations Niederberger was later granted a release from his contract with EHC, to sign a one-year American Hockey League contract with the Manchester Monarchs on July 19, 2013.[2]
In his solitary North American season in 2013–14, Niederberger struggled to adapt and was also hampered by injury to appear in a limited 6 games with the Monarchs. At season's end he opted to return to Germany's top division, signing a multi-year contract to compete for a starting position with Eisbären Berlin on June 5, 2014.[3] After spending the 2014-15 season with the Eisbären squad, seeing the ice in 12 DEL contests, Niederberger went back to Düsseldorfer EG on loan.[4] He received 2015-16 DEL Goaltender of the Year honors.[5]
International career
In April 2016, he made his debut for the German national team.[6]
