The deal offers the twins playing time with the Elite A team, the GDT Bellinzona, as well as the HCB Ticino Rockets until they can, ideally, make it to the first team.

The twin brothers are products of HCAP's organisation but left for North America in 2014. They both played for Notre Dame until the end of the 2016-17 season and have now returned to Switzerland. While both have already suited up for their Elite A team this season, Anthony has also appeared in one game for the Rockets.
