"He is currently in Toronto. But yes, I am also in contact with him. He is, after all, a former junior player of ours," Sven Leuenberger tells the Tages-Anzeiger when asked whether Malgin would be an option for the ZSC Lions.
If Pius Suter stays in North America next season, the Lions will definitely play with five import players, unless they are able to acquire another top Swiss player - like Denis Malgin.
As for their coaching situation, Rikard Grönborg will definitely stay with the Lions next season. If he does not decide to make use of his out clause in 2022, he will also be their coach the following season.
The Lions will close their financial year likely with a loss of about four to five million CHF, Peter Zahner reveals to the Neue Zürcher Zeitung. Sven Leuenberger will also have to operate with a budget that will be about a million lower than this year, he says to the Tages-Anzeiger. The Financial Fairplay, on the other hand, will not play into his roster plans, as it has been put on ice for now.
