NLA - Altough there is still no timetable for his comeback, HC Ambrì-Piotta's 37yr-old American forward Richard Park is making good progress in his recovery, as "Ticinonews" reports.

Park, who is suffering from neck pain since the game against Kloten on January 11, is feeling better day by day and was already back in practice for about two hours today.

Approached on the subject of signing an additional import-player for the rest of the season, Ambrì's head coach Serge Pelletier said in an interview with "Ticinonews": "The fifth foreigner? The return of Park!" and added, "Park was practicing for two hours today. Furthermore, the signing of another foreigner is not a matter between life and death and we have already shown that we are also able to play with only three imports."

Anyways, the "biancoblù" still have three days left in order to sign a possible reinforcement, before the transfer window for international players will close on February 27.

Finnish forward Ville Viitaluoma, who has been considered as a possible candidate, is no longer eligible. The 33yr-old recently signed with Örebrö (SHL) for the rest of the season.
