Former NHL goalie Mikael Tellquist, is rumored to be the replacement and is currently playing with AK Bars Kazan in the KHL.  Much criticism has been directed at Tellquist due to the team’s poor standings, 6th place of the 12 team Eastern Conference.

HC Lugano has also agreed  to sign a contract with former NHL Boyd Deveraux until the end of December 2009. This will increase the imports to five.
