I reckon had Matthews had a deep run with his Swiss team, he would have helped solidify his place at the top of the rankings.



Was looking at the Swiss play offs and it was incredible how it all played out. Bern, the team that swept out Matthews' ZSC Lions in the quarter finals, won the semi finals 4-1 and then the final 4-1. They were the 8th and lowest ranked seed to make the play offs. They were level on points with the team in 9th and they had to go into a play out to even stay in the league. So Bern barely made it in, had a mediocre 21-20-9 record, yet still romped the play offs, only dropping 2 games in the process. They 1st, 2nd and 5th seeds to win it as well. Incredible. Kinda like the Kings from a few years ago.



Anyway, back on topic.

Any heroes on Bern we can sign for cheap?

Bern Baby Bern!
