"He has a professional approach to the game and has become a leader within our group. Patrick exemplifies the work ethic, attitude and professionalism that we want from our players."

The Windsor, ON native was drafted 16th overall by the FireWolves in the 2021 NLL Entry Draft and has quickly developed into a top defender in the NLL. In his first year with the FireWolves during the 2022-23 season, Kaschalk contributed 8 points on 1 goal and 7 assists while also picking up 93 loose balls and causing 14 turnovers.
