EV Zug not willing to let Jason O'Leary out of his running contract

"O'Leary does not have an out-clause in his contract and we will not give him away without compensation," Reto Kläy told the Neue Zürcher Zeitung.

However, the 40-year-old coach, whose contract will run through 2020, is in possession of an out-clause for after this season. The same newspaper had reported last week that HC Davos is narrowing down its candidates for the vacant head coaching position. Michel Zeiter and Kevin Schläpfer are apparently no longer among those.
