PRINCE GEORGE — The Washington Capitals have signed Prince George Cougars forward Terik Parascak to a three year entry-level contract.

The contract will carry an average annual value of $975,000 per season. Parascak was the Capitals first round pick, 17th overall, in last month’s NHL draft.

Parascak had a stellar rookie season in 2023-24 with the Cougars, amassing 105 points (43 goals, 62 assists) in 68 games.

“He is one of the smartest players I have ever coached with a desire to get better every day,” said GM & Head Coach Mark Lamb. “He has earned this, and the future is so exciting for the Prince George Cougars and Washington Capitals.”

Currently, Parascak is attending the Capitals Development Camp, where he is joined by his Cougar teammates Zac Funk and captain Hudson Thornton
