CHL can now play NCAA - change everything !

To be clear, James Hagens wouldn’t be playing college hockey this year in the brave new world because he would go to CHL and then never leave because he made friends. That is the fraudulent insider’s real position that he’s staking his insider status on.

All of the top schools were against granting eligibility to CHL players at last year's coaches meeting in Naples. Now there may have been various nuances to their opposition but the main reason was that they felt they were winning more than their fair share of recruiting battles against the CHL and they did not want to see the majority of top prospects taking that route as they were uncertain as to what those players would do after playing in the CHL. You can believe your little friend in that they were scared of the CHL O/A upsetting the apple cart if you want, I don't really care and frankly I'm getting tired of your accusatory posts directed my way. So just ignore me, as I will you.

You're generalizing in a way quite literally no one can know.

If you had said that you heard from one assistant coach as a school considered a "blue blood" program that XYZ, then fine, it would just come down to whether people want to believe you actually have that source. But you're going beyond that to profess to speak for "top schools" as if they're a collective unit, which they are not.

You've done this trope before when pretending like college coaches all share the same objective in terms of setting a precedent. It's ridiculous to pretend like all schools share the same concerns or objectives let alone that someone could possibly know the concerns/objectives of all of them.

I could accept arguendo your claim to have sources and still dismiss what you're saying as prima facie nonsense in the same that I can dismiss your determinative statements about the future--which quite literally no one can know--as nothing more than conjecture.

And he would be in the CHL because either the U17 folds and/or he turns down a spot on the U18. The sources know these things to be inevitable!

Aiden Kirkwood (2008, QMJHL, Baie Comeau Drakkar) commits to Cornell. Only gotten a couple games in the Q but still worth noting.

I believe he is the 3rd 08 playing in the Q to commit. He's slated to enter for the 27-28 season.

Is it me or are we going to see lot of the college’s over commit with a ton of kids from all over and see how it falls out in the future .

The CHL commits carry more of a pro flight risk so you will most likely see over recruiting to compensate

Maine/Harvard/PSU/Miami/WMU have almost 30 or even more commits. Ya, that tactic, AKA the Tony Granato tactic, will bite them in the butt when families realize they have no actual loyalty to the players they offer. What a joke.

Some of these players don't have loyalty to these programs either, Leslie stated he committed to Bowling Green so he has that locked in option if he can't get a pro contract now.

It’s completely crazy that these schools do that because the reality your still dealing with kids . I feel with new CHL rule it’s going get even worse as these kids from juniors to college will be treated like cattle .

Are they all committed to the same entry year? Seems like a lot of kids will commit early and lock in their spot for two years down the road.
