Re: NCAA vs CHL battle for players
I think we all need to realize that the "top" talent, no matter which league they choose to play (NCAA/CHL) are NOT going to stay for their full four year commitment to either.
Crosby played two years with his QMJHL team. Kane played just ONE for his OHL team. How serious are these CHL teams in developing talent if they keep letting the NHL take their players after one year?...but is college hockey really better off with having Turris for one year? How can they claim to be serious about academics and allow a player to bolt after 1 season?
