He shoots he scores I would say eheheh. It seems he could be a good import, in particular used with “an old fox” like Meskanen

Hard to say something after two completely different games. Probably the line up against tappara will be the confort one for the season and it has been good to win a local match - also if the context has been a tough game where both team could have won -. Today game has not been played, the team...

I would say tonight game cannot be considered as first test. Too many adjustments in the roster

There couldn’t be a better game to start the training season, happy game to everyone!

No it’s a bit complicated the timeline, could be possible only renting a car

One final note on climate: considering we will still be in summer Bolzano could be very warm on those days, with maximum around 30/32 degrees and a good decrease in the night. Despite it is what it could be called here a “mountain city” due to its proximity to mountains, it’s poor elevation and...

Hello everyone, considering i’m italian some info could be relevant if anyone would like to go to Bolzano. Bolzano has its own little airport but I think it’s connected only to German cities. As alternative the closest “big one” is Verona, 150 km from Bolzano, or a bit more far away Bergamo...

I appreciate his spirit, also if sometime he exceeds on that. It is anyway a guy can give its contribution to a team (he had a decent season also in Switzerland), anyway if it’s considered out of the project the company will have its reasons I respect

What’s the contract situation of Haapala? Is waiting if he can get an offer in Switzerland or Sweden before decide if he’d like to remain with us?

Honestly I don’t know this player. For sure it’s of the pattern of a sharp player and also with a decent leadership considering it has already been assistant in AHL. But I’m not sure this will be enough to balance his lack of discipline (he runs on 80-100 mins of PIM every season he played)

Oki doki, then the share ilves ry I think it’s that association. All clear, many thanks for your info, appreciated!

Many Thanks for replying. So i’m assuming there are no share plan you can contribute, is this correct?

Hello everyone, if anyone would support in some way the ilves organization is there any suitable way to do it? Something like be part of a shared stock plan for example?

The goalie duo is for sure something you cannot know before starting but Gunnarson can do well, in particular if there’s a good defense in front of him (as it has been built). For me Pelli, Palve and Meskanen add quality, I would like a couple of forwards with more weight just to be balanced and...

Hello everyone, I’m reading some interesting names rumored to Ilves, in particular from Czech prospect like kodytek or stransky. Czech players can adapt very well to our league, I know but… I think it’s now the moment to think at some players released from Swiss league/Swedish league/KHL and...

Friman could be a right profile, not young but also not too old and could bring some experience

Congratulations to tappara, they deserved to win and they made an important double winning also CHL. Next season will be interesting also for tappara considering the change on the bench

Sorry for the dumb question but it’s always hard for me to remain update due to languages difficulties, which are the ongoing rules in term of imports? Is there a limit on foreigners etc?

For me in general it’s easier to cover the goalie “box” because despite it’s a crucial role it’s not impossible to find somewhere else a talented one. It’s IMHO more difficult to find some leadership players we missed this past season because they need to match with the rest of the team and...

Many thanks both for the detailed explanations, I wasn’t aware of this aspect also because it’s really hard to get info in English (luckily there’s this forum). So at the end of the day nothing to be worried about, for sure not having anymore wages like the kontiola one or the langhamer will...
