Brett McLean (photo), whose contract in Lugano has expired, appeared in 53 games for the Bianconeri this season, recording twelve goals and 21 assists for 33 points. After three and a half seasons, it might have been McLean's last one at the shores of lake Lugano - despite the Canadian's wish to stay.
Moreover, according to the same source, also Ilari Filppula's spot seems not to be safe, despite an on-going contract until the end of the upcoming season. The 33-year-old Finnish center arrived in Lugano last summer and was able to score a total of 38 points (13 goals, 25 assits) in 42 games this season. (rlu)
