This is Fox's third year at Harvard.It’s still early. Kid just started his sophomore year. Plenty of time. It’s also Harvard that he’s going to. So, that likely adds to the thought that he won’t sign early.

Right my bad. Saw on hockeydb he had stats for 2 years at Harvard. Thought the season had started for them thus the second stat line was for this year.This is Fox's third year at Harvard.
if you're fox why sign now instead of becoming a UFA?

If he waits til August of 2020 to become a ufa, he’ll be staring right into the next lockout. If he signs in 2019 after his junior year, he burns a year off of his ELC and gets to RFA status quicker than the UFA option. He is prob is on the Canes 3rd pair for the 2019-20 NHL season.

If he’s determined to go to UFA in 2020, there’s nothing the Canes can do. If he’s serious about his stated desire to get to the NHL ASAP, right now CAR is his only option in the next 2 years.
Lots of ifs in there, all that has come out of the CAR side is that they’re extremely high on him and are confident he’ll sign in the spring. We’ll just have to wait and see.
His value is directly linked to his willingness to sign. So who the hell knows what he's worth.
Probably not a lot.
It is unknown, granted, that Fox is IMMEDIATELY able to jump directly to NHL [today] given the chance. In another thread, someone said they expected Fox viewed as a borderline NHL guy TODAY if he chose to suit up.
Given that, I am sure if a reasonable deal could be worked out promptly he could be playing in NHL sooner than later.
And Canes are least likely to do that on a pivot given their depth.
Rangers, OTOH, just need to trade DeA or Pionk and sit McQ.
