Phil Oreskovic (pronounced Or-esh-ko-vich; born January 26, 1987) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey defenceman.
[5] He spent the 2009–10 season in the AHL with the Toronto Marlies playing a career-high 74 games while scoring 2 goals and getting 7 assists.
In the 2010 offseason, Oreskovic was not offered a contract extension by the Toronto Maple Leafs, thus being acquired as a free agent by the Washington Capitals.
He signed a professional tryout contract (PTO) in September 2010 and is currently playing for the Capitals' AHL affiliate Hershey Bears.
[citation needed] After a season abroad in the Elite Ice Hockey League with the Nottingham Panthers, Oreskovic returned to Canada, signing a one-year contract with the Brampton Beast of the Central Hockey League on September 4, 2014 (the CHL joined the ECHL in October).
