While a relocation has never been done in the history of Swiss hockey, it is theoretically possible, at least according to the Director of the National Leagues Ueli Schwarz: "To my knowledge, there is no rule that would forbid that.

The ASE Group had announced late last night that they are in search of a new "Kloten based" owner for the NLA team. This comes only a year after they had bought the shares of former owner Philippe Gaydoul. (mso)
