In the best-case scenario, the defenseman will miss six games - it is also possible that he will miss the rest of the first half of the season

"Of course, that's not exactly the best-case scenario. But these things just happen. I hope to be fit again as soon as possible. By the playoffs at the latest," says Almquist about his injury. Almquist moved from EV Zug to Munich at the start of the current season. In his 33 DEL and seven CHL games for EHC Red Bull München to date, the twelve-time Swedish international has scored one goal and added twelve assists. In addition to the 32-year-old, Munich are missing three other players.

Kastner, Krämmer and Bittner also missing

Dominik Bittner, who suffered an upper body injury in the game against Eisbären Berlin, underwent successful surgery last Friday. Due to the severity of the injury, a return to game action this season is ruled out.

Vice world champion Maximilian Kastner will be out for at least another four weeks due to a leg injury, Nicolas Krämmer (upper body injury) will be out for at least another week.

The Red Bulls' next game is next Friday. The fourth-placed team in the table will host the Kölner Haie at 7:30 pm in the sold-out Olympia-Eisstadion.
