The influx of injured players compelled Janick Steinman to become active on the market: Jacob Larsson suffered an upper-body injury last Saturday and is out indefinitely, Emil Djuse is also out indefinitely, and Igor Jelovac will miss another four weeks. Furthermore, it is also unclear when Benjamin Quinn will make his comeback.
Bobby Nardella will thus reinforce the team for the time being. The Italian American has played most of his career in North America but also suited up in the SHL for two seasons. Last year, he recorded four goals and 25 assists in 50 regular-season games for HV71.
