As reported by the Freiburger Nachrichten, in the next day, team manager and head coach Christian Dubé will meet with the players and discuss the causes of the 4-1 loss in the quarterfinals series against Genève-Servette HC. Hubert Waeber, president of HC Fribourg-Gottéron, wonders if it might have been some sort of fear, as the commitment of the players cannot be questioned.

In any way, the Dragons do not really have another choice other than working on the mental aspect, as the roster for next season will mostly remain the same and money is tight due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Regarding the financial aspects, Waeber reveals that "40 percent of season ticket holders are foregoing a refund, including many sponsors." That equates to a sum of around 3 million francs.
