"I hope to reach an agreement with him and his agent", HC Sierre's team manager Christophe Fellay states to "Le Nouvelliste" in regards to Emilijus Krakauskas. Most recently under contract with Lausanne HC, the Lithuanian is yet to find a team for this season. He has some experience playing for Sierre, as he did do sp 35 times two years ago.
Aside from Krakauskas, Sierre is looking for reinforcements on defense, but the options are few and far between. "At the moment, we do not have any defenders in sight", Fellay notes. "It is a question of building the team with the new rink in mind."
