The 35-year-old forward will have to pay a fine of CHF 2,000.

Game 2 of the playoff semifinal series between Lausanne HC and HC Fribourg-Gottéron is scheduled for tonight.

It had already been clear that the goaltender would not play for HC Lugano in the 2024-25 season, but it now seems like he will hang up his skates altogether.

In a social media post, the Swiss League champion thanked their two Canadian forwards and wished them all the best for the future.

The 29-year-old forward has one year left on his contract with Frölunda HC. However, his deal contains an out clause.
