Raphaël Erb has agreed to terms with HC Saint-Imier

The 27-year-old would have had a valid contract with HCC last season but did not play a single game in the Swiss League due to a knee injury. In fact, he underwent surgery to have a bone transplant in his left knee to plug a hole in the cartilage.

Raphaël Erb is a product of HC La Chaux-de-Fonds' organization and has only ever played professional hockey for the same Swiss League team (apart from one game with HC Fribourg-Gottéron in the 2012-13 season).
