For this weekend's back-to-back against HC Davos (Friday) and Lausanne HC (Saturday), HC Lugano will probably still have to make do without Radim Zohorna and Calle Dahlström, "RSI" reports. Zohorna received 55 stitches in the mouth area after receiving a puck to the face during practice. For his part, Dahlström has been dealing with muscular issues.
As the same source reports, HC Lugano's latest acquisition Justin Schultz will arrive in Switzerland next week. Moreover, asked by "RSI", head coach Luca Gianinazzi states that they are satisfied with the tryout of goalie Dominic Nyffeler so far: "We wanted to see where he was at after not skating for a while, and Dominic is doing a great job. We are pleased with him and in the next few days or weeks we will know more.”
