Albrecht injured himself on Friday during the game in Langnau. According to the club, he should be ready for action again at the beginning of 2025.

Defenseman Emil Djuse, who had just recovered from an injury, also suffered a relapse on Friday and is out for the time being. Top scorer Malte Strömwall is also unavailable to head coach Stefan Hedlund for the time being. The Swede complained of pain in his upper body after the game against Lugano on Sunday and a hard check. It is unclear how long Djuse and Strömwall will be out for.
