Philip Tomasino's story

He announced himself early in major junior: drafted fifth overall in the 2017 OHL Priority Draft, Philip Tomasino recorded his first OHL point in his very first game on September 23, 2017. Raised in the Toronto area after playing minor midget with the Mississauga Rebels, he developed a playmaking yet goal-oriented style that became more consistent as his junior career progressed.

Tomasino's second OHL season put him on prospect radars. After a modest rookie year, he totaled 34 goals and 72 points in 67 games during 2018–19 with the Niagara IceDogs, and the following season he was named an alternate captain before being traded midseason to the Oshawa Generals. He finished the combined 2019–20 campaign with 40 goals and 100 points in 62 games, a scoring pace that ranked him among the OHL's top producers before the season was cancelled in March 2020.

Selected 24th overall by the Nashville Predators in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, Tomasino signed a three-year entry-level deal in October 2019 and split time between the NHL and AHL as he turned pro. He played for the Chicago Wolves and Milwaukee Admirals, earned AHL All-Rookie Team honours in 2021, and made his NHL debut on October 14, 2021, scoring his first NHL goal a week later on October 21. Over subsequent seasons he moved between Nashville and its AHL affiliates, contributing in regular season and playoff games at both levels.

Nashville traded him to the Pittsburgh Penguins on November 25, 2024, for a 2027 fourth-round pick; he had a productive start in Pittsburgh but saw his role fluctuate and spent time in the AHL. Later transactions brought stops in the Flyers organization and, in July 2026, a one-year two-way contract with the Ottawa Senators, after which he cleared waivers and was assigned to the Belleville Senators to begin the 2026–27 season.

Internationally, Tomasino represented Canada at the 2021 World Junior Championship, recording four goals and six points as Canada took silver. His game is defined by playmaking instincts combined with an ability to finish, a profile that has helped him adapt between junior, AHL and NHL competition.
