Lausanne HC will miss Oksanen for a few weeks, Pilut for the whole season

Ahti Oksanen injured his neck during the match between Finland and the Czech Republic. The club expects him to be unavailable for four to six weeks. This diagnosis was revealed after several tests, both in Finnland and Lausanne. According to the initial timeline, he could return in mid-December.

Lawrence Pilut tore his Achilles tendon while training in Sweden this summer. Misfortune has found the 28-year-old defenseman once more, he reinjured his lower body. This forces him to undergo season-ending surgery. 

Pilut will stay in Lausanne for his recovery to motivate his teammates, as he has done since the beginning of the season.
