Hosted by the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Florida Panthers will join the Nashville Predators and Washington Capitals in the tournament, featuring six games showcasing each team's prospects.

As the Panthers' General Manager Dale Tallon recently revealed to La Frontière, he would like to see the Swiss youngster spending the upcoming season not with the ZSC Lions in the National League A, but with the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies in the Canadian Hockey League.

The 18-year-old native of Olten was selected in the fourth round of this year's NHL Entry Draft as 102nd overall by the Florida Panthers. His rights in the CHL lie with the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies who drafted him in the 2014 CHL Draft as 26th overall. (rlu)
