Reaction to the NCAA’s CHL rule change

There has been a lot of reaction to yesterday’s news that the NCAA adopted a proposal to make CHL players eligible for NCAA hockey beginning in 2025-26.

Hours after the news was made official, Kitchener Rangers (OHL) goalie Jackson Parsons announced he committed to Clarkson. I’m guessing he’s the first of many announcements from players over the next week. I don’t have an exact number, but several CHL players had committed to NCAA programs before the official change, and players were waiting for the proposal to be adopted before making their commitments official.
