Fribourg likely to have Tristan Vauclair back tonight

Forward Tristan Vauclair, who was sidelined for a bit more than two weeks, should be able to give his comeback tonight for the game between his HC Fribourg-Gottéron and HC Lugano, the Freiburger Nachrichten write.

Defenseman Philippe Furrer might also slot back into the lineup. Initially reported to be out for several weeks at the end of last month, the 34-year-old has already resumed skating. It is unlikely he will be ready for tonight's game though.
