I know, I'm probably the only one here who gives a **** about college hockey... but hey, this is where most some of the greatest NHL legends come from!
ftfy
Most of the greatest NHL legends come from the CHL (Canadian Hockey Leauge) which is comprised of the OHL (Ontario Hockey) the WHL (Western Hockey) and the QMJHL (Quebec Major Junior Hockey). While College in the Northern US (Minnesota Michigan, Illinois, New England States) has made great in roads since the 1980's (watch Miracle on Ice), Canada still dominates the NHL player pool (as nationality of player). The top names you think of in hockey Gretzky, Lemieux, Yzerman, Crosby, Thornton, Stamkos, Brodeur, Roy, all products of the CHL.
Not to discredit college but most of the greatest players have come from the CHL, or Euro Leauges.
although I love the frozen 4, and college hockey in general congrats to your team Chew!.
