Not that much. Canadian kids out. Many American kids/families will want to stay this side of the border. Good Euros continuing to come over.
They'll be fine.
CHL can now play NCAA - change everything !

The USHL will be fine. They'll probably lose the 2 teams in Muskegon and Youngstown eventually but some other teams from the NAHL with the facilities will step up if they dont expand.
Almost all of the top Canadian talent that will take the NCAA route will play CHL, some of the top-end American born USHL players will make the jump to those leagues too. With that comes more open spots for other players, and the USHL has a tender signing and draft system with no geographical restrictions, unlike the CHL. They are getting some quality Euro/import junior players into that league and tons of American juniors needing spots to develop and play sanctioned high level junior hockey.

I realize not all CHLers are Canadian (or non-American) but the timing of this would be highly ironic (and not good for NCAA hockey):

I mean international NCAA athletes are less than 5%.
Schools already have self imposed limits
Seems pretty nothing to me
Especially when their isn’t a division 1 hockey program in the state

Eh, this would be a state by state thing. Count up the number of D1 schools in conservative states, minuscule. Won’t affect things much.
after this year it’s going lot higher , how many Canada 2004 got signed this year . Most people think the number is going 40-50% .

I wouldn’t be sure of that as you noticed i don’t think Americans like subsidizing Canada youth hockey with USA tax payer money lol - Once you have a very rich USA or political Dad have his kid decommited for a foreign player the wheels will turn quickly .

Perhaps and this may very well pass in states with "conservative" governments but if you understand how politics work at the federal level, this has an extremely low probability of passing.

The federal government telling a private institution like Boston College who they can give scholarships to seems far-fetched. A Texas legislature for the University of Texas would have more leeway.

Don't want to get too political but all it takes is one or two football or basketball coaches from an SEC school complaining to their boosters about this and I guarantee the support will go down lol

Really, who even is that player? Can someone tell me? I think I follow this stuff closely, and have never heard of him.
If you take out the top 5-15 Canadien players - talking massive studs , then you take out 20-30 high end USA kids like Reid going to CHL that sounds like weaker league to me . Dach is a penn state recruit in bchl probably going third round heading to WHL . Anderson ( both 2007 bchl kids) is a Maine committ on the NHL central scouting list signed with WHL but USHL teams had both their rights . I think their are probably a bunch of kids in the USHL right now will sign with the CHL once season is over . I think the transfer fee plus switching mid season slowed the process down a bit . Even this year the USHL looks lot weaker especially depth of player talent pool . Omaha is a joke , tri city and chicago depth wise looks very weak .

It's all hypothetical. This player that we're referencing is relatively a nobody. He's not even someone the majority of people who read this thread would know of without looking up.
Not one single player of the top 15 or so assets in the USHL has left this year due to the new rules. A few have left due to the stupidity of the USHL in not playing young players (Reid, Kosick, Morin) and that's a real issue, but I'm still not seeing this drain of talent due to the new rules that people speak of.
Maybe it'll happen, but I don't see what this guy (a relative nobody) has to do with that point.
Oil Kings might have a pretty decent team next year.
