NLA - Another chapter in the history of a heated playoff quarterfinal-clash between HC Lugano and Genève-Servette HC is about to be written. Its protagonists: The single judge, HC Lugano's Roland Habisreutinger, and Chris McSorley.

As 20 Minutes reports, Geneva's coach Chris McSorley has handed in the video of the scene in which his forward Chris Rivera got injured and - as you do - sent a copy of this e-mail to HC Lugano's team manager Roland Habisreutinger. The latter apparently complained that Rivera actually did return to the ice after that scene.

In the following, the debate between the two opponents seems to have gotten a bit out of hand - at least enough for the single judge to initiate proceedings against Chris McSorley. Only one question remains in this series on and off the ice: what the hell is gonna be next? (tme)

UPDATE The SIHF confirms that Reto Steinmann has initiated proceedings against Chris McSorley for a violation of the codes of conduct. - 09 March 2015, 4:51 PM
