In addition to Mark Arcobello (
) and Mikkel Bødker (
), HC Lugano is still looking for two more import-players: a two-way defenseman and a forward. According to the Corriere del Ticino, the Bianconeri have cast an eye on Peter Cehlárik, a 24-year-old Slovakian forward, who is currently part of the Boston Bruins' organization.
About a week ago, Cehlárik's agent Louis Liesch confirmed to HockeyNews.se that his client is willing to return to Europe next season and that Switzerland is an option for him. But Liesch also stated that his client "is not the cheapest player".
Over the course of this season, Peter Cehlárik mainly played for the AHL's Providence Bruins. In 48 games for them, he put up 37 points (16 goals). In three games for the Boston Bruins, he recorded one assist.
