The 34-year-old forward told RSI during the Spengler Cup that he would like to stay in Switzerland and play for a Swiss team. Now, he will have the opportunity to prove himself in Davos. However, more details about his tryout are not available.

Vesce, who has already played in several leagues in North America, Europe, and Asia, left Traktor Chelyabinsk of the KHL in November after having played seven games for them. Ever since then, he has been looking for a new team.

Moreover, Kapp writes that Sin Schläpfer, 20, has once again returned from Hockey Thurgau. He normally plays for the Lions via B-license.
