Paolo Morini, a former player of HC Lugano during his junior years, leaves his job as head coach of the Bianconeri's U20 squad to be part of the coaching staff of the men's squad. Within the U20 the 29-year-old will be succeeded by Raffaele Sannitz, who coached the Bellinzona Rockets last season.
As for Paolo Della Bella, the 46-year-old Swiss-Italian will add the goaltending department of the main squad to his mansions, which already includes the entire youth sector. He thus replaces Michael Lawrence, who left HC Lugano after seven seasons to return to his home country Canada.
