The 21-year-old had to stay away from the rink from September until February due to a knee injury which required surgery. To get some ice time, Aeschlimann joined Thurgau at the beginning of this month and played two games for them ever since (one goal and three assists).
Furthermore, Chris Egli (bone fracture) and Ahren Spylo (back problems) are still injured. Dino Wieser, on the other hand, has recoevered from his injury and is now allowed to play again after his one-game suspension. As for Félicien Du Bois, he will be out of the lineup due to illness.
