Possibily, are players allowed to file for unemployment?

Away from home? Seriously? Millions of college and university students do the same thing every year and have no issues. They all dont go to school at home, they find a place to rent on their own or pay to live on campus....

CHL kids are even less equipped to handle RL than your average North American teen. Most of them have never had to lift a finger for themselves. Everything is taken care of by billets and their teams and their agents. They miss half the school year due to road trips. Parental discipline is sometimes thousands of miles away. It's basically year-in-year-out summer camp outside of hockey.

Keep in mind that the reason this conversation is still going is because he said players on ELC don't get any money, that's why they live with other players.

I’m telling everyone right now. This 5 man forward pp is a freaking joke. It’s gross negligence to have Jake Voracek at the top of an umbrella of 5 forwards. You could just see the bruins couldn’t wait to be off to the races.

Oh they're definitely going to get burned on it sooner rather than later.

I know that 70-80K signing bonus just isn't enough...these poor kids. We should make a commercial starring Sally Struthers to help out.

CHL players are salaried. If they're broke when they get to the NHL, it's because they bought too many skins in Fortnite.

I know, but again the conversation was strictly NCAA players, who can not accept a pro contract unless they leave school.
