Episode 54: Kasimir Kaskisuo

It took us awhile to get our schedules to match up but Kasimir Kaskisuo was finally able to hop on the pod. Kasimir is a goalie from Finland who made the jump over to NA when he was 20 years old to pursue his dream. We talked about his college career, him signing pro, the grind and his eventual NHL start against Pittsburgh. After North America, Kaz went to Sweden for 2 seasons before returning to NA this past season. Kaz has also gained popularity through his youtube videos and documenting his life as a pro goalie, which started in the covid/hockey bubble days. I think these videos are great for his audience to see the “behind the scenes” of a pro athlete and can also help influence young goalies into good habits. Hope you enjoy!
