Given that Niklas Schlegel and Davide Fadani will be sidelined for six to eight weeks, HC Lugano has been looking at the market for a Swiss replacement that can alternate duties with 20-year-old Thibault Fatton.
Lugano does have Canadian goalie Leland Irving under contract but employing him would mean removing one import-forward from the lineup. Yesterday, in the derby against HC Ambrì-Piotta, 18-year-old Gabriel Crivelli suited up as the backup of Fatton.
