Lordo did mention in one of his weekend interviews that he'll know over the next month where he will stand with the d-men, as some are looking to play in the DEL. Maybe A Hotham and/or Louis looking to play in Germany.
This guy has fantastic numbers and will make a good hotham replacement if he decides to play elsewhere.

He did originally sign in Austria for this year, but looks like he has pulled out of the deal. If you can translate this page, it's quite a read....

If true, think it's better we stay away. But no doubt over his playing ability.
