Also von Gunten out for World Championship - Bodenmann doubtful

As "Blick"-journalist Angelo Rocchinotti reports on Twitter, Patrick von Gunten suffers from a torn muscle fibre and won't be travelling to Minsk with the national team. In addition, also Kloten's Simon Bodenmann is doubtful, according to the Tages Anzeiger.

So far, the following players have turned down coach Simpson's invitation for the World Championship: Martin Plüss, Ryan Gardner (both SC Bern), Dino Wieser, Dario Bürgler (both HC Davos), Julien Sprunger, Andrej Bykov (both Fribourg-Gottéron), Lukas Flüeler, Roman Wick (both ZSC Lions), Matthias Bieber and Patrick von Gunten (both Kloten Flyers).

Auch Flyers-Verteidiger Patrick von Gunten (Muskelfaserriss in den Adduktoren) kann nicht an die WM.
