As Klaus Zaugg (Watson) reports, there are rumors that Luca Boltshauser and Joël Vermin had a dispute that was so heated that their working relationship cannot be repaired anymore. The rumored solution: find a new home for Joël Vermin.

Asked by Zaugg, Lausanne HC's head of communication, Thierry Meyer, did only issue a "we have no comment"-statement. However, three other sources confirmed the dispute between Vermin and Boltshauser to Zaugg. Furthermore, someone told the same source that Tyler Moy and Etienne Froidevaux are also on the market.

Joël Vermin has been part of Lausanne HC's organization ever since his return from North America in 2017. In the 2019-20 season, he recorded 14 goals and eleven assists in 47 games.
