Another noteworthy moment in DI men's early 2024-25 action ...
Mar-quis Moment
Merrimack's Student Manager Becomes Opening Day Starter

by Mike McMahon/Staff Writer ...
(Published October 6, 2024)

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. — If things had worked out differently, Spencer Marquis wouldn't have been in North Andover on Sunday. He might have been on a golf course in Maine.

He was supposed to have an internship lined up at a golf course close to his home in Brunswick, Maine. Last minute, it fell through. So, the Merrimack senior found a spot as an intern with the Merrimack men's hockey program.

Sunday was supposed to be his first official game as part of the equipment staff.

Instead, he was the starting goaltender.

You read that correctly ... he was the starting goaltender in Merrimack's 3-2 loss to Stonehill on Sunday. Marquis made 22 saves.

"Not the result we wanted, but it's a dream come true for me," he said. "It's been the craziest 48 hours of my life.

"Every kid grows up dreaming of playing college hockey. I got my chance a little different than some other people, but it was a once in a lifetime opportunity." ...

A belated round of stick taps to a DI women's program that could use some serious hugs ... 🤗

Stick Taps and Snark - October 15, 2024 by Nicole Haase

St. Michael's wins! – If you're new to following women's college hockey, you might not understand the importance of the Purple Knights' 1-0 win over Post on Saturday, but I promise you it was big. St. Michael's did not win a game last season. They were 0-35-1. Their last win (one of just two that season) came on February 24, 2022. That's 961 days between wins, or more than two years and seven months. There's a new staff in charge this season and it's exciting to see a win already. And congrats to Julia Chedel on scoring the team's only goal to give them the 1-0 win. ...

I'm guessing we are going to be seeing more of this after the recent ruling.

The NCAA D1 Council has a vote scheduled for this month, but not sure if it happened yet. I'm guessing when it happens the vote will be in favour of allowing CHL players to play NCAA, but with some provisions on guys who have signed pro contracts. There are currently 2 or 3 lawsuits against the NCAA that they will lose if it goes to court.

BREAKING: NCAA DI Council Votes to Make CHL Players Eligible

Rundown on the landmark NCAA legislation from Mike McMahon of College Hockey News ...
November 7, 2024

This Week in College Hockey: CHL Players Will Arrive Next Season
by Mike McMahon/Staff Writer (@MikeMcMahonCHN)

The NCAA Division I Council voted on Thursday to adopt proposal No. 2024-56, which eliminates previous legislation classifying CHL players as professionals.

Beginning next season (2025-26), CHL players are eligible for NCAA Division I hockey. The new legislation will be effective August 1, 2025.

The proposal will also permit involvement with professional teams and leagues, provided that no more than actual and necessary expenses for participation are received or guaranteed.

Here are some key details on the adopted proposal:

Before initial full-time enrollment

— CHL players who have not signed NHL entry-level contracts will maintain NCAA eligibility provided they are not paid more than their actual and necessary expenses.

— Players can participate in tryouts with professional teams before their initial full-time enrollment, provided they are not paid more than their actual and necessary expenses (players cannot represent that professional team in any game or scrimmage, including exhibition games).

— Players can participate in practice sessions conducted by professional teams before initial full-time enrollment, provided they are not paid more than their actual and necessary expenses.

— Before initial full-time enrollment, a player can compete with a professional team provided they are not paid more than their actual and necessary expenses.

After initial full-time enrollment

— After full-time enrollment, players can participate in practice sessions conducted by professional teams, but three conditions must be met:

— They do not receive any compensation for participating in those sessions

— They do not enter into any contract or agreement with a professional team

— They cannot take part in any outside competition (games or scrimmages) as a representative of a professional team

Players are still ineligible if …

— If they have entered any contract or agreement with a professional team, either verbally or in writing, “regardless of the legal enforceability of that agreement.” The only exception is if a player signs an agreement BEFORE initial full-time enrollment. The agreement must not provide any payment (or promise of future payment) above the player’s actual and necessary expenses to participate with that team.

— Players cannot sign a nonbinding agreement or future contract with a professional team. In other words, a player cannot sign a post-dated contract after their NCAA eligibility with the promise of future payment (i.e. players cannot be signed to an NHL entry-level contract, assigned to a CHL team, and maintain NCAA eligibility). ...
