ZSC's Sven Leuenberger: "We're in contact with several players"

"We'd like to have a forward who can play both as a winger and as a center," Leuenberger says to the Neue Zürcher Zeitung. "But those are rare." A name that has come up recently is the New York Rangers' Brandon Pirri, but according to reports, the 26-year-old's goal is to stay in the National Hockey League.

Whether Pirri actually is an option, Leuenberger does not say: "We're currently in contact with several players," he explains to the same source. "It would be good if we came to an agreement soon." He is, however, not in a hurry: "We could certainly start the season with only three imports (...), but my goal is to complete our roster before the season starts."
