As expected, the coach of the Swiss team Patrick Fischer has formalized a list comprising 21 names for the preliminary phase of the world championship, he thus leaves the possibility of adding 4 players. The reason for this is the pending decisions of Hischier, Siegenthaler, Schmid and Fiala.
Two goalkeepers, 7 defenders and 12 forwards feature in this list. Biel goalkeeper Joren van Pottelberghe is one of the “failed” players at first, as are his teammate Mike Künzle, Lausanne striker Damien Riat and Columbus defender Tim Berni.
“I hope for a quick decision from the Devils leaders. I think the players’ end-of-season meetings will take place no later than Saturday. So maybe they could be there as early as Monday“, underlined Fischer.
The coach can count since Thursday on two new reinforcements stamped NHL, attackers Nino Niederreiter, double world silver medalist, and Denis Malgin. An El Nino who has also been appointed captain of this Swiss team.
