The 50-year old Swede took over behind the boards of SC Langenthal in summer last year. "Pelle attaches great importance to the development of players. He has managed to create a good team spirit and to communicate the right attitude," SCL's team manager Noël Guyaz notes.

As for Toms Andersons, the 24-year-old Latvian forward, who is in possession of a Swiss players' license, will thus leave HC Thurgau after five straight seasons with them. This term so far, Andersons has managed to record ten goals and 17 assists in 36 games for HCT.
