Raffaele Sannitz, Julien Vauclair and Philippe Furrer will be Chiesa's alternate captains. The 29-year-old defenseman joined HC Lugano's organisation in 2005.
However, he also spent four years in Zug before returning to the Bianconeri in 2014. Until now Chiesa scratched the ice for Lugano 297 times. (abu)
Erstmals seit 32 Jahren (Fabio Gaggini) hat @OfficialHCL wieder einen Tessiner Captain: Alessandro Chiesa erhält das C von Steve Hirschi.
