MEDICAL REPORT - Even though the Tages Anzeiger reported this morning that a return of Ryan Keller and Robert Nilsson might be possible, it was not in the cards for the two ZSC Lions forwards.

MEDICAL REPORT - As EV Zug informs, they will have to cope without their forward Dario Bürgler for the next four to six weeks.

MEDICAL REPORT - Hit by a puck to the ear in Saturday's game in Zurich, Ambrì's defenseman Patrick Sidler will have to sit out in tonight's game. 21-year-old Jesse Zgraggen is going to replace him.

MEDICAL REPORT - For tonight's game against SC Langenthal, Hockey Thurgau's defenseman Patrick Bloch and forward Alain Bahar are still absent. In addition, Aurelio Lemm and Christopher Bagnoud are doubtful.

MEDICAL REPORT - Whereas the ZSC Lions can count on a return of defensemen Andri Stoffel and Severin Blindenbacher - and maybe Robert Nilsson and even Ryan Keller - EVZ will probably have to do without Dario Bürgler.
