Giroux has been with the Biancoblù since the 2013-14 season and has surpassed 30 points in every year he played with them since. However, the forward had already stated at the Spengler Cup in Davos that he wanted to show off his skills, so he must have had an inkling that things would not work out with Ambrì.

As for Mäenpää, SC Bern has supposedly already started negotiating with the 32-year-old defenseman. The Finn has scored five goals and 30 assists this season. Furthermore, still according to the same source, HC Ambrì-Piotta might decide to play with four import forwards in the 2016-17 season. (mso)
