Can Fischer go on without Master Richard?

Robert Mayer: From the scapegoat in Davos to the master goalkeeper with Servette.
Stephen RothDeputy Chief of Ice Hockey

Robert Mayer (33)

It is a fairy tale written by the keeper. At Davos, the native Czech was put on the sidelines. Then he had to get his fill during his guest appearance with the SCL Tigers. Even after returning to Geneva, the veteran with a predilection for daring excursions and theatricality initially played second fiddle. Gauthier Descloux scored in the first three playoff games against Lugano. But then Mayer gets to play, even scores a goal at the end of the quarter-finals and stays in the penalty area until the title is won. Before him, only three Swiss goalkeepers had won titles in the last 15 years: Genoni, Flüeler and Bührer.

Tanner Richard (30)

The son of ex-Rappi and ZSC star Mike Richard does not play to befriend the opponent. He also provokes and exceeds limits, as in the final when he grabs the grid helmet from injured Biel captain Gaëtan Haas. Richard also attracts the attention of detractors: he compares Lugano’s Tifosi to “circus animals”. He also takes the pressure off his teammates with pithy jokes. He can handle it himself. He has the stick in play for some crucial goals and is a force in the face-offs. Can national coach Patrick Fischer still do without him?

Teemu Hartikainen (32)

To separate the 106-pound piece from the pane with your delicate hands, shake a rock. The revenge attempts of the Lugano players Calvin Thürkauf and Samuel Guerra are also remembered. Before a series of cross-checks, they only get a smile from the Finn – so Thürkauf then attacks Hartikainen’s friend Linus Omark, as if to make sure his stick isn’t made of cardboard. Nothing and no one can stop the qualifying top scorer. Or almost nothing. What opponents can’t do, a gang in Biel succeeds, trapping Hartikainen’s stick so that he ends up on his back like a beetle.

Henrik Tommeres (32)

After six years in Geneva, the marathon man, who spends an average of 27 minutes per game on the ice, returns to Frölunda as champion. You will miss the Swede. In the play-offs, the defender is no longer as spectacular and dangerous as in qualifying (18 goals), but he plays solidly and boosts Geneva’s game.

Marc Antoine Pouliot (37)

De Québécois, who now has a Swiss passport thanks to his marriage to his wife Joelle from Seeland, was expelled from Fribourg in 2016 because he had forgotten his skates at home during the away game in Zug. While Gottéron is still waiting for a title, Pouliot is now champion. And his share in the historic title is huge. The ex-NHL forward, who once drafted Edmonton in the 1st round, scores the important goals despite little ice time.
