Sandis Smons agrees to terms with EHC Chur

"With Sandis, we are gaining a technically skilled, strong defender who, despite his young age, has already gained a lot of experience at a high level," Björn Gerhard, EHC Chur's Head of Sports, said.

Sandis Smons was under contract with HC La Chaux-de-Fonds for the past two seasons. Last year, the defenseman recorded seven assists in 40 regular-season games.
