I can only speak to the QMJHL but that is correct you can max out at I believe it is $36k if you play 4 years in the league.
My kid isn't making the NHL and wants to eventually go to medical school they way he looks at is if I can play 4 years in the Q take my $36k and then play Usports and get some more money from them my undergrad is paid.
He is a good student though. We have talked and realistically he's not making the Q at 16 but should have a real shot for next year. he has a JR A team that would like him this year but he will come back to U18 Major where can fundamentally finish high school this year get his AP Biology, Chem and Calc done and then next year finish his couple of high school courses and start taking 1 or 2 university courses a semester playing in the Q if he makes it.
