In order to get more competition practice in addition to the SWHL B championship matches, EV Zug has acquired a B license for Eveliina Mäkinen (28) for EHC Sursee, which plays in the 2nd division. The Finnish international will be between the posts for the men’s team for the first time on Saturday in the match against HC Ascona. Chiara Pfosi (25) has also already played three games for HC Fribourg-Gottéron Ladies from the Postfinance Women’s League with a B license and is expected to assist the Saanestadt team until mid-November.
“For our two goalkeepers, this challenge in the top women’s and men’s competition is extremely important for their further development,” says head coach Daniela Diaz (41). The EVZ women, who launched this season and progressed to the second highest level, have achieved big wins in each of the four championship matches so far, scoring 68 goals and not conceding a single one. The workload and the opportunity to excel are therefore kept at a modest level for the two Zug goalkeepers.
Arnold-Schäublin organized the premiere
Mäkinen is not the first goalkeeper to play in a Swiss men’s league. Riitta Arnold-Schäublin (41), who played in goal for first division club EHC Zunzgen-Sissach from 2001 to 2003, provided the premiere. At that time, an adjustment to the rules was necessary. Former Nati goalkeeper Florence Schelling (34) also played twenty games for first division club EHC Bülach between 2013 and 2015. And her national team colleague Sophie Anthamatten (32) spent 15 years between the posts for the first division team EHC Saastal and the second division team EHC Raron until her dismissal last spring and played massively more matches in men’s ice hockey than in women’s ice hockey. during her career.
