HC Sierre reportedly looking for another head coach for the 2025-26 season

According to "Le Nouvelliste", Dany Gelinas will not coach HC Sierre beyond this season. Gelinas returned to Sierre after several years of absence in mid-December to replace Mario Pouliot who was relieved of his head coaching duties on the same day. 

HC Sierre's staff has supposedly already a candidate in mind for the 2025-26 season: Louis Matte. However, the 52-year-old Canadian has one year left on his contract with HC La Chaux-de-Fonds. It thus remains to be seen how everything will play out.
