Ciaccio has one year left on his deal with the SCL Tigers, but apparently Marco Bayer has agreed to let him leave after this season. As Zaugg reports, Ciaccio will sign a three-year deal with HC Ambrì-Piotta which will run through 2023.

Gianluca Zaetta, for his part, will now become the SCL Tigers' backup goaltender, Zaugg writes. Zaetta is one of the goaltenders in EV Zug's system and has appeared in 16 games for the EVZ Academy this season, posting a .879 save percentage.
