Hurricanes Sign Dominick Fensore

April 15, 2023 at 9:51 am CDT | by Brian La Rose 1 Comment

Dominick Fensore’s senior year at Boston University was certainly a strong one.  He was rewarded for his efforts late on Friday when the Hurricanes announced that they’d signed the defenseman to a two-year, entry-level contract.  The deal begins next season so Fensore will not be eligible to suit up for Carolina in their upcoming playoff run.  GM Don Waddell released the following statement:

Domenick is a skilled, playmaking defenseman. He captained a BU team that was among the best in college hockey this season, and we’re excited for him to take the next steps in his development.

The contract pays $832.5K at the NHL in each season with a $70K minor league salary while Fensore receives a signing bonus of $185K spread out evenly over the two years, creating an AAV of $925K.

Fensore posted his second straight 31-point season in 2022-23, finishing tied for fifth on the Terriers in scoring and second among defensemen.  Boston University made the Frozen Four earlier this month before falling to number-one-ranked Minnesota in the semifinals.

The 21-year-old, a third-round pick back in 2019 (90th overall) is on the smaller side at 5’7 but has clearly shown an ability to produce at the college level.  He’ll now get his chance next season to see if he can become an impact point producer in the pros in the minors although, with AHL Chicago dropping Carolina as their affiliate for next season, it remains to be seen where Fensore will be eventually suiting up.
