Emilijus Krakauskas last played for HC Sierre, recording one goal and six assists in 38 games for them. The forward is Lithuanian but has a Swiss players' license and thus will not count as an import player.
He is not the only player practising with the team: EHC Biel's prospects Defensemen Niklas Blessing and Joel Kurt, and forwards Lorin Froidevaux, Guillaume Kaser, and Tommaso Madaschi are all also present.
In other news, EHC Olten will present Thomas Roost as a new board member to their general assembly. If the assembly elects him, the scout will take over the office of "Delegate for Sport". He is already supporting the coaching staff and the board of directors as of the beginning of August.
