Ciaccio, 27, has been part of the SCL Tigers since 2014 and was one of the key pieces of the team which managed to beat the SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers in 2015 and thus return to the NLA once again.

Punnenovs, 22, on his part, joined the Tigers in 2015, after having spent three season with the Lakers' organisation. The Latvian appeared in 26 games for the Tigers last season. Both goaltenders will now stay with the team until the end of the 2018-19 season. (mso)
