March 31, 2025
Chesley is expected to sign a three-year, entry-level contract with the Capitals, the team announced Monday.
ANALYSIS
Chesley agreed to an amateur tryout with AHL Hershey and will report to the minor-league club to start. The move will end the 21-year-old blueliner's collegiate career with the University of Minnesota, having logged 20 points in 40 games for the Gophers this season. Selected by the Caps in the second round of the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, Chesley could make his NHL debut at some point next year but figures to spend the bulk of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.
