The August 15th deadline to sign certain college prospects is here, and if the players listed don't sign with their respective teams by 5 p.m. ET, they'll become unrestricted free agents.

Thanks to CapFriendly, 2021 World Junior gold medalist John Farinacci is among those on the list below. Farinacci is a 22-year-old centerman who has spent three seasons playing in the NCAA with Harvard University. The Coyotes drafted him in the third round in 2019, but back in the Spring; it was reported that he wouldn't be signing with the organization.
There should be plenty of interest in John Farinacci over the next several days, and one of those teams should be the Canucks. Farinacci would be a solid piece to add to the Canucks' prospect pool. In 79 career games with Harvard University, the Red Bank, New Jersey native had 61 points (25 goals, 36 assists).
The list also includes the Flyers' former 1st round selection Jay O'Brien. The 2018 Draft pick will not be signing with the team who'll receive a compensatory 2nd round pick in 2024.

Let's take a look at the full list that CapFriendly put out on Tuesday morning.
