If he leaves college early, he could become a UFA as early as June 1, 2028. If he plays all 4 seasons, he would become a UFA on August 16, 2029.
Great info. Thanks.

It seems in some cases, CHL players switching to college actually could lengthen the time a team has their rights assuming Mews is a freshman this coming Fall?

Wonder if CBA tries to harmonize CHL and NCAA to just a fixed number of control years post draft regardless of route.
