"He has our full trust," Lakers team manager Harry Rogenmoser says in an interview with the Tages Anzeiger. Still according to Rogenmoser, there hasn't been any long discussion about this topic among the club's leadership.

After they fell to HC Ambrì-Piotta 2-4 in the Playout Final series, the Rapperswil-Jona Lakers will have to face either the SCL Tigers or EHC Olten in the League Qualification, starting on Thursday night. (tme)
