    Les Hockeyades in Le Sentier are every year a great pre-season meeting for teams from all around Europe.
     
    Players who have been exchanged between both teams at the end of the season 2014-2015 will surely try to impress and defend their new colors!
     
    It looks like a real pre-season game with two NLA teams. There is always something special between these two teams, as they are the two best teams in the French speaking part of Switzerland. Always a real derby between them.
     
    We'll have today the small final between GSHC and Gotteron to know who will obtain the 3rd place.
