2022 Canadians in College
A year ago, 786 Canadians in College were listed, compared to a total of 412 Canadian players on NCAA men’s Division I hockey rosters in the 2020-21 season.
For college players, draft status was always based on age as much as on a player’s graduating class. Obviously, juniors at four-year schools are eligible. If a player turned 21 within 45 days of the draft (regardless of his class), he is eligible. This year a lot of 21-year-old sophomores are eligible.
