I get there can be a concern for a small number of players, but there are only so many NCAA spots available and not every team in the NCAA is taking on CHL players. The US have their own development plans and systems.
I think you might be overstating the impact this will have. But I may be wrong.
This may also open up spots in the CHL for international players from other countries.
The holes will be filled, there will be plenty of kids willing to take the spots and excel for those that leave for the NCAA.
