It suffers from long-term SCB

It is no shame to be eliminated against Biel. But if it is ultimately the highlight of the season, being able to convert a 0-2 deficit in this quarter-final series into a 2-2 before the downfall, then a lot will go wrong at SC Bern. The 16-time Swiss champion has been ill since winning the title in 2019 and has been a long-term patient for four years. Who remains extremely vulnerable and relapses again and again on the way back. This is the medical file for the 2022/23 season:

The stimulus number could not be controlled, did what she wanted. A lot of energy was wasted on the sidelines because of them, and when the rager finally got his act together as the quarterfinals progressed, he was no longer a factor on the ice. The fact that this strenuous interlude is now over and that he returns to Fribourg will be a relief to everyone in Bern. And by the way: have fun, Christian Dubé!

In sixth place Johan Lundskog was released at the beginning of November, his successor Toni Söderholm finished qualifying after a blood-curdling game for the pre-play-offs in eighth place and above all: a decent, emotionless Northerner left, the next decent, emotionless Northerner came . The impact of this whole exercise on the team: zero!

Longtime NHL forward Sven Bärtschi should have fueled the offense and been an attraction. Instead, he fluctuated somewhere between injuries, illnesses and form crunches throughout the season, not picking up speed and missing the season finale entirely. It will be interesting to see what conclusions the SCB sports management will use to approach his personality. She can’t be satisfied with her second prominent Swiss storm commitment Joël Vermin.

The effect hoped for and expected in Bern after the major upheaval in the team has faded and the permanent low has remained. There are not many tools to be able to turn the right screws next season. Since only one Swiss transfer has been made so far (Samuel Kreis is from Zug) and this market doesn’t offer much more, really only two:

Söderholm would still like to move to Munich, then this problem should solve itself. However, SCB cannot afford to miss again.

Kahun, Lindberg and Gélinas have current contracts. In the case of Kahun and Lindberg this is gratifying for the SCB, in the case of Gélinas less so. DiDomenico leaves, Goloubef, Teves and Ennis should also have no future in Bern. At Scviour that seems open. Anyway, the SCB needs added value with the mercenaries.

The goalkeeper question is closely related to the question of foreigners. Will SCB be patient with Philip Wüthrich despite a few blunders in the play-offs? If not, suddenly there is a foreign keeper on the mat in Bern.
