The 33-year-old forward has only ever played for HC Fribourg-Gottéron and made no secret of the fact that he would like to stay.

"We are currently in talks. I am looking over the proposal with my people," Andrei Bykov tells La Liberté. "I hope to be able to make a decision soon."

The forward is happy that things have been finally set in motion as he waited quite a bit for a new offer from the Dragons: "I concentrated on the Gottéron option and I didn't want to look elsewhere."

La Liberté already reported in January that if Bykov were to receive an offer from HCFG, it would likely come with a big salary cut. The forward was not willing to talk about money with the newspaper but stated that there are some "parameters that have to be adjusted."
