NOTRE DAME, Ind. – Former Fighting Irish center, and the team’s leading scorer in 2022-23, University of Notre Dame hockey’s Chayse Primeau has signed his first professional contract with the Florida Everblades of the ECHL.
“My time at Notre Dame was nothing short of special,” Primeau said. “The friendships with the coaches, teammates, and classmates will last a lifetime.”
Primeau joined the Irish as a graduate student from Omaha prior to the start of the 2022-23 season and quickly made an impact centering the team’s top line. Appearing in 37 games for the Blue and Gold this season, the Margate City, New Jersey native led the Irish in goals (eight), assists (15) and points (23).
In 154 career games played between Omaha and Notre Dame, Primeau registered 95 points off 37 goals and 58 assists.
“I’m excited to get the chance to take the next step in my career down here in Florida,” Primeau added.
He made his professional debut in the Everblades’ 4-2 win Wednesday evening over the Newfoundland Growlers.
