SC Bern to start the season with four import players

Last season, the Bears went into the season with five import players. They mostly did this because of the Champions Hockey League, but according to team manager Alex Chatelain things have changed: "Five import players are good for the CHL but not ideal for the start of the championship."

As for the roster itself, Matthias Bieber was not practicing on Tuesday. He is dealing with an inflammation of the pubic bone and was thus not able to take part in the training session.
