If that were to happen, there would be a lot more top players in that age range playing Junior A because none of them would be able to play in the CHL. It would also likely attract better coaching to the Junior A leagues.

An interesting side effect would be that we'd likely see more Canadian kids choose the NCAA if they didn't have to commit to the CHL at 15 or 16.



If there was too much of a talent gap, there would also be the possibility of splitting the CHL into separate draft-eligible and pre-draft leagues.
