The hockey community has been struck with another devastating loss, as the hockey world mourns the loss of a 16-season pro hockey goaltender who lost his life far too soon at 41-years old.
The former Italian-born goaltender Thomas Commisso, a long-time pro hockey goaltender has tragically passed away far too soon.
Commisso has had a stellar career, as he suited up for hundreds of games throughout his career in the time span between 2002 and 2019, making a real name for himself.
The netminder started his hockey journey with his hometown team, Italian pro hockey with HC Bolzano, then began to play for the Siebeneich/Settequerce, Bolzano II, Kaltern/Caldaro, Pustertal/Val Pusteria Pergine, EV Bozen 84 and ended with Pergine.
The first organization to ever give him the opportunity to play pro hockey back in 2002, HV Bolzano, revealed that devastating news on social media:
"HCB Alto Adige Alperia learns with deep sadness the news of the premature disappearance of Thomas Commisso, aged 41. Thomas, after the youngsters in the white and red shirt, had debuted in the first team, with which he played a total of 30 games between 2002 and 2013. As a backup of the Foxes he won one Copa Italy and two Italian Supercups.
The whole society holds the family in a sincere hug at this moment of great pain. Rest in peace."

Commisso won the Serie B Championship in 2007 and won two Italian Super Cups, alongside a Coppa Italia trophy.
On behalf of everyone here at NY Rangers Insider we'd like to send our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Commisso as they navigate through this difficult time.
Rest in peace, Thomas Commisso.
