Several teams interested in the ZSC Lions' Patrick Geering

The ZSC Lions, of course, also would like to keep the defenseman within their organisation. It remains to be seen where he will sign in the end. "Patrick has not yet thought about his future and does not know yet what he wants, " says his agent about Geering's plans.

He adds, however, that they will start discussions in the international break and hope to come to a decision by the end of the year. Geering is a product of the Lions' organisation and has appeared in 473 games for them, scoring 27 goals and 101 assists.
