EHC Visp's budget will exceed CHF 4 million

That budget would include the CHF 240,000 EHC Visp will have to pay the municipality each season for the Lonza Arena. Also, according to the same source, the team does not expect a huge impact on their earnings from the promotion - and thus the future direct competition - of HC Sierre.

The management would also like to bring the traditional four-nation tournament, which is usually held in December, to Visp for the next couple of years. Whether or not they will manage this remains to be seen.
