The 36-year-old defenseman has recovered from his knee problems.

Beat Forster ready for comeback

According to the Journal du Jura, Forster, as well as Yannick Rathgeb, did not play in the CHL games last week but is now good to go for the Swiss Ice Hockey Cup game against the Huttwil Falcons.

Yannick Rathgeb, on the other hand, is still questionable but should be ready for the season opener on Friday. He was kept out of the games last week due to a wrist inflammation.

As for the rest of the roster, Anssi Salmela only returned to Biel yesterday and might thus be rested tonight. According to Olsson, the Seelanders will take several of their youngsters with them to play in the cup game. Elien Paupe will be their starting goaltender.
