The 20-year-old defenseman (four points in 43 games) had been part of HC Ajoie this season in the National League B, where he had played on loan from HC Fribourg-Gottéron.

However, after the end of the season for Ajoie, he was allowed to play in the playoffs with the Dornbiner Bulldogs in the EBEL, where he scored two points in six games. He will stay with the Austrian team at least until the end of the 2014/15 season.
