According to the Journal du Jura, EHC Biel will let Robbie Earl (photo) and Jan Neuenschwander sit out at least until the end of the Olympic break.

Earl missed Saturday's game due to falling awkwardly on to the ice after being hit in the game on Friday. Neuenschwander has now also been out of the lineup for almost two weeks due to an undisclosed injury. Biel's decision will thus give them time to properly recover from their respective injuries before the start of the playoffs.

NOTE An earlier version of our article stated that Earl and Neuenschwander would be out until the end of the regular season. This was factually incorrect and has been corrected after a note made by Bieler Tagblatt's Moritz Bill. - 01 February 2018, 11:34 AM
