I actually think it seems pretty fair. A former co worker used his years in the CHL towards an education and eventually became an engineer. I don’t know a ton of the ins and outs but it’s a pretty fair choice. Go to Europe, travel, play hockey and make a significant amount of money or receive a hell of a scholarship and get to work like everyone else.
Hell I would have killed to have my education fully or even mostly paid for.
