Well, the Rangers should care. Carolina holds Fox’s rights until August 15th, 2020. As such, Fox has a few options at his disposal. He can leave college and sign with the Hurricanes. If he doesn’t, then he’ll return to Harvard as a senior for the 2019-2020 season. Once his senior seasons concludes he can then either immediately sign with Carolina or wait until August 16th, at which point he’ll become a free agent.
