Dietz wasn't extended a qualifying offer from the Capitals and will become an unrestricted free agent, Mike Vogel of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Dietz has played a total of 13 games at the NHL level, all of which came with Montreal in 2015. He spent the entirety of the 2016 campaign with AHL Texas and didn't show enough improvement for the Capitals to feel he was worthy of a qualifying offer. Dietz will head to free agency and can sign with a new team as soon as July 1.

2013 Fantasy Outlook
Dietz, 20, spent his third full season with the Saskatoon Blades of the WHL in 2012-13. His inclination is to support the offense and that style resulted in 58 points (24 goals, 34 assists) in 72 games for the Blades. He has the size to be an NHL blueliner and isn't afraid to engage with physical play, or to mix it up with opponents. He's no longer junior eligible, so we suspect Dietz will make his pro debut for Hamilton of the AHL in 2013-14.
