I know that if a player plays in the OHL, he loses NCAA eligibilty....?

But if a player would decide to drop out of NCAA hockey, can he still play major junior?

I think that he can, but I am having a debate with a friend about it.

Yes.

As long as a player is 20 or younger, he can play Tier 1 Junior A

As long as a player is 20 or younger, and has not played professionally, he can play Tier 2 Junior A

As long as a player has not played professionally, and not played Tier 1 Junior A, he is eligible to play NCAA hockey

As long as you are enrolled at the respective school...you can play CIAU hockey (At one time, more players had played in the NHL and gone on to play in the CIAU then the other way around)

Jeff P, from a financial perspective, players get the same financial compensation for Tier 2 and Tier 1 Junior A. The NCAA does not have an issue with that. The NCAA has an issue with the NHL/CHL agreement. Prior to 1980 (when the NHL lowered the age limit to 18), many players played Tier 1 Junior A and then played college.

Sure. Major Junior isn't limited by the requirements that NCAA imposes. the thing with NCAA is that you cna't have played pro hockey- aka not received money for it. The catch for most players wanting to do that would be the age though.

If a team would take him, he could.
Yes the player can play in the OHL ... Hope this helps
Yes the player can play in the OHL
I wouldn't have debated with anyone over this without reasonable doubt, but I didn't know this actually. I knew that the NCAA considered the OHL pro, but not the reverse.

So goood question, it made me learn something today. Lol.
Looks like one more reason for me to think the NCAA is out to lunch.
Yes, he absolutely can if he is still of age.
