Dominic Nyffeler was reportedly hanging up his skates at the end of the previous season, when he was a member of EHC Olten and the option in his contract was not activated. As the "Corriere del Ticino" now reports, the netminder is currently practicing with HC Lugano on a try-out basis and might be offered a contract.
Due to Joren van Pottelberghe's injury, the Bianconeri are presumably looking for a Swiss goaltender to back up Niklas Schlegel whenever recently-signed Adam Húska is scratched in favor of an import skater.
