Free-agent goalie Matt O'Connor remains in talks with Senators, Canucks, Rangers
Matt O'Connor may be inching closer to signing his first NHL contract.
Since falling short of a NCAA championship as a student at Boston University, the undrafted goalie has been meeting with several clubs around the league.
After some deliberation, O'Connor remains in talks with the Ottawa Senators, Vancouver Canucks and New York Rangers, and is looking to work with an experienced position coach who can help hone his game, according to Louis Jean of TVA Sports.
All three teams have a measure of goaltending depth working in their favor, while the 23-year-old is certainly hoping to make the jump to the pro level with some assurance of playing time.
O'Connor posted a record of 25-4-4 with a 2.18 goals-against-average and a .927 during his senior year at BU.
