The only solution I can see for this would be to make college players ineligible for the draft. If you turn pro, or are not enrolled in college for the following year then you can enter the draft.

Why can't they just make it so that the first year out of college the drafting team still has signing rights for the next 2 seasons. as long as a max entry level is offered by July 1 of the first offseason. If the player chooses not to sign they can't play in the NHL for 2 seasons.
