Aron Summer (20), originally a defenceman, was converted to forward by the coaching team during the current season - and immediately proved his enormous versatility. The Feldkirch native, who has been part of the Pioneers since the club was founded, has already made 89 appearances in the win2day ICE Hockey League despite his young age. As a former U20 national player, he not only brings talent, but also a physical presence and athleticism that predestine him for his new role in attack.

Yannik Lebeda (22), also from the Vorarlberg ice hockey youth programme, has worked his way up through the partner club EC Bregenzerwald in recent years. Due to the strong internal competition among the young players, Lebeda was primarily used in the Alps Hockey League last season - where he scored 22 points in 28 games. His development shows: The potential is there to continue gaining a foothold in the win2day ICE Hockey League.
