Tigers Luca Boltshauser and Aleksi Saarela left early last night

In last night's game between Lausanne HC and the SCL Tigers, two players on the guests' roster had to leave the game prematurely due to injuries. Aleksi Saarela was hit to the face, and Luca Boltshauser was hurt when making a save, as the "Berner Zeitung" writes. Whether Langnau will be able to count on the two when they face elimination from the National League playoffs tomorrow Sunday remains to be seen.

Boltshauser's early departure resulted in a 13-minute comeback for Stéphane Charlin, who had suffered a knee injury at the start of February. Before his absence, Charlin was the statistically best netminder throughout the regular season. He even got elected "MVP of the National League" by captains and coaches of the league.
