Suter and Rathgeb both were part of the cut to limit the roster of the New York Islanders' training camp to 43 players.

Forward Suter has already returned to Switzerland and will be suiting up for the Lions, in tonight's game against the SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers.

Former HC Fribourg-Gottéron defenseman Rathgeb will likely be taking part in the remainder of the Sound Tigers' pre-season and be a part of the AHL-team for the start of their season.

On the other hand, veteran defender Luca Sbisa still figures on the Islanders' training camp roster. He is attending the camp on a PTO.
