They'll lose Canadian players who want to play closer to home for sure but I don't see the doomsday scenario that some are suggesting
Expect growing pains,increased player movements, lawsuits and more lawsuits

It might make the NCAA more competitive. But it should allow more Canadians to stay in Canada instead of going to the ushl. I’m sure lots choose the ushl so that they can go to university or college after.

You've already had 2 USHL teams approach the OHL about joining the league.

There is already a bunch of media claiming what is going to happen. Fact is, no one knows because it is now all fueled by agents.

I would like to see the USHL become the 4th league of the CHL. Change the name of you have too. Make it a 15 to 18 year old league or maybe 19 and then the NCAA or CIS. I doubt that happens though.

I do believe the next move is up to the NHL before we see what might happen. They need to decide what happens to CHL players after they are drafted. As of now, they have to sign them within 2 years. They now can't sign or they lose NCAA eligibility. What happens to those drafted and unsigned after 2 years if they go to the NCAA? Does a team lose the players rights? Lot of questions the NHL needs to answer.

And no one is talking about how this could effect the AHL. Take Fabian Lysell for example. Would he have been better off developing in the NCAA the last 2 years or the AHL? I think I know my answer.

That would be great. I wish the ushl was a fourth league too.
