This week's episode revisits a listener question from our mailbag episode a few weeks ago. We tackle this one in it's own episode as it asks what to expect going into the draft eligible year for the CHL and what the advantages and disadvantages of certain leagues are.
We speak mostly on the leagues in western Canada as that is best related to our experiences, but talk about some advantages and disadvantages of academies vs club hockey, unsanctioned vs sanctioned, etc.
