The Boston Bruins just signed Jeremy Swayman's replacement
The Boston Bruins have reportedly signed Jeremy Swayman's replacement for the time being.
With Jeremy Swayman not attending training camp, it has left a spot open for another goaltender to slot in, and the Boston Bruins just signed someone to take Swayman's spot.
Bruins general manager Don Sweeney just announced that the Boston Bruins have signed goaltender Kasimir Kaskisuo to a professional tryout contract to replace Jeremy Swayman at training camp.
The Bruins announce they've signed veteran pro goalie Kasimir Kaskisuo to a veteran tryout at training camp with a goalie spot open now that unsigned RFA Jeremy Swayman isn't expected to report anytime soon.
Kaskisuo is 30, and played for the Laval Rockets of the AHL last year, he appeared in 13 games for the team and had a 7-4-0 record with a 2.90 GAA and a .909 SV%.
Kasimir Kaskisuo has played in 108 career AHL games and has a pretty solid record of 53-36-10 with a 2.68 GAA and a .909 SV% in his career.
The 6-foot-2, 207 pound goaltender was orginally signed by the Nashville Predators as a free agent signing in 2020.
