Carinthia's Division I table leader is working on a big coup! Former NHL crack Michi Raffl, who is currently under contract with the Swiss top team Lausanne HC, is to be brought into the lower house next season. There he would meet up with his old buddies again.

This transfer would be an ice hockey sensation! Carinthia's Division I leaders Steindorf already have one or two former VSV stars (Stefan Bacher, Martin Oraze or Benji Perik) on board - now they are flirting with a very, very big fish: former NHL crack Michael Raffl, who is currently under contract with the leader of the Swiss top league and runner-up Lausanne HC - and this contract expires at the end of the season!
