GDT: It’s Kaskisuo time, everyone

Kasimir Kaskisuo has been everywhere, man.

Here, let me hit the highlights before the broadcast tells you all about it tonight.

He started out in the Jokerit system in Finland, which is a clue to the path his life took. Jokerit, then in the Liiga, was always rich in goalie prospects. As he was ageing out of junior, he was facing a loan to another team, likely a Mestis team (lower division), and the alternative of an NCAA career is what he chose.

He played two years at the University of Minnesota-Duluth after trying the USHL and getting cut the prior year.
