Simon Bourque (185 cm x 90 kg) is a solid defenseman with excellent offensive instincts and can be used both in the power play and the penalty killing. In two seasons with HC TIWAG Innsbruck (2021-2023), he was always among the league's best scoring defensemen (100 games - 59 points). He spent the last season in Norway, where he played for the Stavanger Oilers (55 appearances - 41 points).

Simon Bourque: "Having played in Innsbruck for two years, I know the area and my girlfriend and I fell in love with these places, but of course my choice was determined by Bolzano's ambitions. It's a club steeped in tradition, a team that's always difficult to play against and, above all, always wants to win."
