HC La Chaux-de-Fonds soon to announce their new goaltender

As Burkhalter tells Arcinfo, he had also issued an offer to Östlund but knew that once a National League team was involved, he would have a hard time convincing the goaltender to stay. 

He has been looking on the market ever since, and, according to the same source, has found a replacement for the goaltender. In fact, the signing is supposed to be announced soon. 

While the name of the new acquisition was not disclosed, Arcinfo revealed that it would not be Damiano Ciaccio, whose contract with HC Ajoie expires at the end of this season.
