@De_Gambassi I know you follow sometimes french hockey, are there any mention about this in the medias ?

Such a big news, that I just learned it from you  Hockey clubs have zero national profile (only soccer and rugby clubs do). A french hockey club could have a miraculous run in HCL eliminating swedish clubs that I would not be reported, so the recrutment of one player  

 

French clubs do have a regional profile though, but from local medias is doesn't look huge neither tbh (but I don't live in that aera).

I see. Well, it´s not like a bomb or so, but definitely quite interesting choice, anyway, I noticed many "names" already entering the Magnus league, it looks like the French clubs are starting to do great job with improving the level and the reputation of the local championship. First important step also for the entire french hockey to develops even more than it is doing in the recent years.
