She made her European Women's Hockey League (EWHL) debut with the women's representative team of KMH Budapest during the playoffs of the 2020–21 season and played part of the 2021–22 season with the team. Concurrent to her women's senior league career, she also played with Hungarian men's junior teams, including in the U.-16 I.

International play

At the 2020 Winter Youth Olympics, she won a bronze medal in the girls' 3x3 mixed tournament with Team Blue Crystals, an international team of thirteen under-16 players that included Sidre Özer, who became the first Turkish ice hockey player to ever win an Olympic medal at the event.[4][5]

With the Hungarian national under-18 team, she participated in the Division I Group A tournaments of the IIHF U18 Women's World Championship in 2020 and 2022.[6] Aged fourteen years and two months, she was the youngest Hungarian player at the 2020 tournament and tied Petra Szamosfalvi for third in team scoring with 1 goal and 1 assist. The 2022 tournament was a breakout for Metzler, who led all tournament skaters in goals scored, with 5 goals in three games played, and recorded the tournament’s best face-off percentage, at 75.41%.[7][8][9] In recognition of her exemplary play in the 2022 tournament, she was selected as the Best Player of the Hungarian team by the coaches.[10]

Metzler represented Hungary at the IIHF Women's World Championship in 2021 and 2022.[11] Though she was the youngest Hungarian player at the 2022 tournament, aged sixteen years and nine months,[12] she ranked third on the team for points and tied Alexandra Huszák, the Hungarian national team's all-time top scorer, for second on the team in goals, scoring Hungary’s only goal against the United States and slipping one past Anni Keisala of Finland, the 2021 World Championship Best Goaltender, for 2 goals in six games played.[13][14]
