Rumor

To relieve their injury-stricken situation, EHC Kloten's team manager Pascal Müller might be on the verge of signing another forward. In addition, also ZSC Lions' Luca Cunti could be an option, the Tages-Anzeiger writes.

With Bobby Sanguinetti, James Sheppard, Tim Ramholt, Matthias Bieber, Daniele Grassi, and Roman Schlagenhauf out of yesterday's lineup of the Swiss Ice Hockey Cup semifinal, EHC Kloten's injury situation is still tense. Although Sheppard and Bieber should return to game action in Saturday's derby against the ZSC Lions, Kloten is on the lookout for other players to strengthen their roster.

As the Tages-Anzeiger writes, it looks like team manager Pascal Müller is close to signing a replacement for Tommi Santala. In addition, there might also be the option of taking over forward Luca Cunti from the ZSC Lions on loan, the same source suggests. Pascal Müller, however, was not willing to comment on any of these two options. For the upcoming season, Cunti has already signed with HC Lugano and does not play a role in Zurich's team anymore.
