The Philadelphia Flyers have made a strategic move by signing experienced goaltender Kasimir Kaskisuo to a professional tryout (PTO) contract. With training camp underway and questions surrounding their goaltending depth, the Flyers are bringing in the seasoned netminder to compete for a potential spot on the roster.
Kaskisuo, known for his stint in the AHL and his popular presence on social media, has had a journeyman career, with limited but notable NHL experience. His last significant run came in the AHL, where he played for the Laval Rocket, posting solid numbers that have kept him on the radar of teams looking for reliable goalie depth.
The Flyers’ goaltending situation has been a point of concern, and with this PTO contract, Kaskisuo has a chance to showcase his skills and prove that he can still compete at the highest level. The team is expected to evaluate Kaskisuo closely during training camp and preseason, as they look to solidify their roster ahead of the upcoming season.

For Kaskisuo, this is an opportunity to make a lasting impression and potentially earn a full-time spot with the Flyers. Whether or not he secures a place, his arrival adds an interesting wrinkle to the Flyers’ goaltending competition, making things even more intriguing as the season approaches.
