EHCB's Kevin Schläpfer tells players he will not be Switzerland's new head coach

The Swiss Ice Hockey Federation had approached Kevin Schläpfer about the coaching position and made him several offers before asking his club EHC Biel for his release earlier this week. However, Biel did not agree to give the permission to their coach, who is still under contract until 2018. (lcu)

UPDATE EHC Biel's Board of Directors announces at today's press conference that Kevin Schläpfer will indeed remain the Seelanders' head coach and fulfill his contract. The Board has taken the decision not to release their head coach from his contract until the end of the 2017-18 season, reports the "Bieler Tagblatt". - 15 October 2015, 12:37 PM

Schläpfer wird nicht Nati-Trainer! Und bleibt in Biel. Das verkündet er nach dem Training den Spielern
