Renato Tosio (born November 16, 1964 in Wil, Switzerland) is a retired Swiss professional ice hockey goaltender. He is popular for his energetic style of play, for his sportsmanship and also for being a great entertainer and showman.

Playing career

Tosio began his professional career playing for EHC Chur, after playing in junior teams of the club since he was 8 years old. He stayed with Chur until the end of the 1986/87 season, twice winning the NLB championship and thus promoting to the NLA (in 1984 and 1986).

He then played 14 years for SC Bern, the first game on October 3, 1987 against EHC Biel and the final one on March 20, 2001 against HC Lugano.

He was Swiss Ice Hockey Champion for four times with SC Bern: 1989, 1991, 1992, 1997

His jersey number 31 has since been retired. Other retired numbers include 7 (Martin Rauch), 12 (Roland Dellsberger) and 16 (Sven Leuenberger). These numbers are inscribed on a huge banner below the roof of the PostFinance Arena, the home venue of the SC Bern.
