Story Summary
Jason Akeson has been training with HC Lugano during the international break, raising the possibility that the Genève-Servette HC forward could add another National League club to his season.
Akeson has made two appearances for Genève-Servette this autumn and eight more for HC La Chaux-de-Fonds while on loan. It remains unconfirmed whether his time on the ice with Lugano will lead to a game for the Bianconeri.
Key Facts
- Jason Akeson has been practising with HC Lugano during the international break.
- Akeson has played twice for Genève-Servette HC this autumn.

- There is no confirmation that Akeson will play for HC Lugano.
IHM Discussion
The immediate fact is Akeson’s training involvement with Lugano rather than a completed switch. His season has already included ice time for Genève-Servette and a loan spell at La Chaux-de-Fonds, so a potential Lugano appearance would become another chapter in an unusually mobile opening to the campaign.
That may make the 35-year-old forward a more straightforward option for a club assessing its depth, but his status with Lugano has not been defined publicly.
Why It Matters
Akeson’s situation is worth following because his appearances have so far been split between Genève-Servette and La Chaux-de-Fonds. Training with Lugano introduces a possible third destination, while his domestic status gives any interested National League side greater flexibility than it would have with an import player.
