American defender Matt Caito, 32, is on the radar of Liiga teams, reports Expressen.
Caito has played the last six seasons in Sweden with Leksands IF. The team was relegated from the SHL to Allsvenskan at the end of this season, and as a result, Caito is leaving the club. Expressen reports that there is interest in Caito from Liiga.
