HC La Chaux-de-Fonds has apparently found a replacement for goaltender Remo Giovannini. As L'Express-L'Impartial reports, Genève-Servette HC's U20 goaltender Léo Chuard will join HCC. In addition, La Chaux-de-Fonds has also cast an eye on two forwards.

Even though the 18-year-old Chuard could still play another season for Geneva's Elite A team, he has chosen to play in the NLB for his personal development. Next season, he will thus likely be HC La Chaux-de-Fonds' second goaltender behind Tim Wolf, who extended his contract with HCC for two additional seasons in early February.

In addition, according to the same source, HCC has been in contact with EHC Olten's Diego Schwarzenbach and HC Ajoie's Jan Mosimann, who both have to leave their teams. However, they have not found an agreement with the two forwards yet.
