Reading, PA - The Reading Royals' American Hockey League affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms announced on Tuesday that defenseman Adam Karashik has re-signed with the club for the 2023-24 season.

Karashik, 25, provided the following statement in his re-signing announcement, per Lehigh Valley:

"I really like the staff and I really like the guys on the team," Karashik said. "It's an organization that I'm really excited to be a part of and to continue to be a part of. It really was a no-brainer for me to stay with Philly. There's opportunity and it fits my brand of hockey. I know that the organization wants to play the way that I like to play so it was easy for me."

The 6'0", 201-pound defenseman is entering his second professional season after previously playing games between the Royals and Phantoms in the AHL.
