Length of absence of HCC's Matthew Boucher not yet clear

As Loïc Burkhalter, team manager of HC La Chaux-de-Fonds, tells the newspaper, the initial diagnosis has not been good, but it could be less severe than originally anticipated. He is now awaiting further opinions from the medical staff. Burkhalter is, however, making sure he has a solution in case Boucher will be out for quite some time: the team manager is looking at the market. 

HC La Chaux-de-Fonds will also have to make do without Steven Macquat (might return soon) and Janik Loosli (ill) in the next game. Tim Grossniklaus, on the other hand, will return to the lineup. Loan Burkhalter might also play.
