Stucki will once again work as CEO for GSHC, the newspaper reports. He had retired from the position in 2016 as he did not see eye to eye with Hugh Quennec and Mike Gillis at the time.
There is also some news regarding the sportive side of things. According to the same source, goaltender Remo Giovannini might get a new contract with GSHC, but will then likely be loaned to another team. As for the defensemen, Will Petschenig and Goran Bezina are at the end of their respective contracts. Both would like to stay with GSHC.
Forwards Guillaume Maillard and Kay Schweri will definitely stay with the team. While Maillard has reportedly signed a two-year contract extension, Schweri's option has been activated by the club. The future of Nick Spaling Thomas Heinimann, Yoan Massimino, and Floran Douay remains to be determined. Timothy Kast, who was not able to stay with EV Zug, might return to the Grenats in the upcoming season.
As for the import players, Johan Fransson and Henrik Tömmernes will honor their contracts. The future of Stéphane Da Costa is not yet clear. GSHC would like to keep him, but it will all depend on the offers he receives from other teams. According to Grégory Beaud (Le Matin), it looks like Da Costa will favor a return to the KHL, though.
Last Update: 24 March 2018, 08:11 AM | mso*Apparemment Stéphane Da Costa privilégie la piste KHL plutôt que de rester en Suisse. Pas étonnant, il a prouvé cette saison que ses pépins de santé étaient un mauvais souvenir et, avec une préparation correcte, il serait compétitif. #GSHC
