Huh, now you're just in basic denial mode. People were literally speculating that players were going to stop going to the NTDP in favor of the CHL, that they'd have to drop down to 1 combined team for both age groups. Surprise surprise, NTDP got everyone it wanted (if maybe they lost a kid or two that wouldn't be anything new either, historically speaking).What on earth are you talking about?
Literally nobody ever has said that no players will move to the NCAA.
The NCAA homers were predicting a massive influx of high-profile players to the NCAA when the CHL season ended (like, 50+ players) and literally 1 guy has announced a commitment since his season ended, and that guy has been widely known for months.
No, it was not known the day that CHL players were declared eligible for the NCAA that Cayden Lindstrom and Henry Mews would spend 2025-26 in the NCAA. We'll see how many players make a move next year once everything is sorted out and everyone knows what the rules are on all of this stuff. I don't know if there are barely even 50 unsigned teenagers (2006 born or later) in the CHL good enough to play in the NCAA next year as is, so yeah I'm certainly not anticipating that many (especially as most recruiting classes are already full so you'd really only make an exception for a special talent). It's obvious the goal posts have shifted tremendously already and will likely continue to shift because people are too stubborn to admit they maybe didn't have their pulse completely on things like they'd like to believe.
