Alain Bircher to stay with Kloten for another two years

Bircher, who is currently sidelined by a collarbone fracture, will thus remain part of EHC Kloten until at least 2020. The 20-year-old defenseman is a product of Kloten's organization and played his first games for the first team in the 2015-16 season. In eight games for them this season, he was not able to put his name on the scoresheet.
