EHC Olten without Kparghai for now, but with a third import?

According to the Oltner Tagblatt, the necessary documents for Kparghai's transfer somehow got lost on the way from Olten to the federation. As a consequence, the Mice did not receive a license for the 33-year-old defenseman, as the club has confirmed.

But not to worry: Because Kparghai currently has his license with the HCB Ticino Rockets - a team which is going to miss the Swiss League playoffs - there will be another 24-hour-window to handle his transfer after the final round of the regular season.

There is also the possibility that there will be another import player at the Kleinholz for the playoffs. Still according to the Oltner Tagblatt, EHCO's team manager Marc Grieder has not yet given up and is still looking for a suitable solution on the market.
