I'll get to see him play !

Exactly what you should hear from your captain.



Sure sounds like he wants to come back. We shall see...

Have to think the Caps would still want him even after next year. Consistency has been a trademark of him each an ever year in Hamden.

Agreed... I'm just worried they may want him now. That would be a huge blow.

Sure they may want him now but who is to say he wants them right now. It takes two to tango.

So obviously a biased fan here. But....Who’s to say the Caps are ready for him or even if they are offered him a decent deal. Maybe he doesn’t want to be the only D1 cap’t in qu history with a losing record . OR maybe other things, whatever, lets just be happy if he stays!

Oh, don't get me wrong. I want him to stay. If I implied otherwise I'm sorry as that wasn't my intention.

Not at all. I think I was supporting your opinion . Is it October yet?

Btw feed from Eleven sports for ecac playoffs is pretty good.

NHL teams often push to sign college prospects after their junior year. The reason is that if they play the 4th year in college, the NHL team loses exclusive rights and the player is free to sign anywhere. That's what happened with Jimmy Vesey from Harvard a couple of years ago. Nashville owned his rights but he played the 4th year and then signed with the Rangers.

So if the Caps want Priskie it is likely they will push to sign him his off season. It doesn't mean he will go, but be prepared. He might.

Isn't it August 15th of their senior year that allows them to become a free agent? That's what Vesey held out for.

While I won't fault him if he goes, I think Chase will be back and will be determined to get QU back to the top.

That's not entirely accurate. Teams only lose seniors' rights if they don't sign by late in the summer.

True but NHL teams often don't want to take it down to the wire. So they will often sign their NCAA prospects after their junior year. I've seen it happen a number of times with my "other" team, Michigan.
