Lausanne grabs the services of a silver hero from Copenhagen!
Damien Riat – he played six matches at the World Cup in Denmark three years ago – is joining the team from the canton of Vaud for the 2021/22 season.
The striker, who was drafted in the 4th round in 2016 (117th overall) by the Washington Capitals, was on the ice for Geneva (on loan from the Capitals) and in the AHL for the Hershey Bears this past season.
The National League season starts for Riat and Lausanne on September 10 with the away game at EHC Biel, for which Riat played between 2018 and 2020. (yap)
