The club names different expectations in relation to the future development of the Tigers as reason for the termination with Tomas Tamfal, thanking him for his loyal and professional work with the team.

New headcoach will be a familiar face in Langnau: Bengt-Åke Gustafsson. He was already Tigers headcoach from 1999-2001. Gustafsson coached the Swedish national team from 2005 until 2010 before being employed by the ZSC Lions, Atlant Mytischtschi and the Nürnberg Ice Tigers.

Peter Andersson will be the new assistant coach, which means recently appointed Urs Bärtschi's contract will not be extended.
