According to the Bieler Tagblatt, EHC Biel was not willing to disclose why the defenseman missed practice on Thursday.

Beat Forster

One thing is, however, already clear: Beat Forster will be replaced by Noah Delémont in the lineup. The 18-year-old defenseman will thus make his National League debut against HC Lugano. Elvis Schläpfer, who had been recalled to the National League, has returned to SC Langenthal again.

16-year-old Lian Bichsel is also currently practicing with the team. However, the defenseman is not yet ready to play in the National League. While the team has plans to integrate him into the roster at some point in the future, he is currently only practicing with the team to compensate for the absences in the defense.
