Karashik will be playing at Avon Old Farms this season.

These are some interesting quotes from an article on Adam Karashik:

1. UConn had only one player on its 2014-15 roster from Connecticut — Rocky Hill's Patrick Kirtland, who will serve as the team's captain next season — but Karashik said he was told that the coaching staff is not necessarily targeting native Nutmeggers.

"They want to bring in the best players they can," Karashik added. "They're not going to just focus on one state or region."

2. according to sources, UConn thinks enough of Karashik that he was offered a full scholarship.

"It's unheard of money-wise," Oilers' EHL coach Eric Lind said. "They usually break it up."

3. "I think prep school is the best option for me right now," said Karashik, who is hoping to enroll at UConn as a true freshman in the fall of 2016.

If his plans change, Karashik said he would consider the USHL and British Columbia Hockey League after prep school before heading off to Storrs.

"If need be, I'll play a year or two of juniors," he said
