I think the BCHL will be fine. Penticton and Chilliwack are bigger than the BCHL needs to be and the CHL is now the top dog in juniors.

The BCHL has been pretty clear about their goals. The want to compete with the USHL, and recruit from all over North America. They will still be that, and will also get the disgruntled WHL guys that need playing time.

The BCHL wants to compete with the USHL but now they have to compete with the CHL as well. The one benefit the BCHL does have is not having a draft.

However, it will be interesting to see how the future CHL drafts go now that the threat of going NCAA isn't as strong anymore.
