Report: Canucks among five finalists for college free agent Kerfoot

Harvard University forward Alexander Kerfoot has narrowed his list of potential suitors to five teams, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.

His hometown Vancouver Canucks are believed to be among those clubs, as are the New York Rangers, San Jose Sharks, New York Islanders, and Colorado Avalanche, while as many as 10 teams showed interest in the center.

Kerfoot was a fifth-round pick by the New Jersey Devils in 2012 but became a free agent last week after he failed to sign an entry-level contract.

The 23-year-old completed his fourth season with Harvard last year, as he appeared in 36 games and netted 16 goals and 29 assists.
