As team manager Sven Leuenberger tells 20 Minuten, SCB's head coach Guy Boucher will determine a new captain of the team every month.

Leuenberger explains that during the past season, captain Martin Plüss often felt alone in his leadership position, wishing the responsibility was spread over more shoulders. The Bears' team manager adds that therefore "this decision is in no way a demotion of Plüss".
