Well then they can go to school at that point. They are only 20 when their junior careers end, there is absolutely nothing stopping them from going to university at that point. Or technical school or any of the other things that people who are 20 do. I don't see any downside to playing junior hockey. Worst case scenario you have to retake some high school courses to get your marks up. If you can't do that, you never would have got into university anyway, even if you didn't play a minute of organized sports.
