How will it be determined?
Is there a draft that he enters, does he just go to a team of his choice and tryout for a spot? How does that work?
From the WHL Wiki
Players aged 15–20 are eligible to play in the WHL, though 15-year olds are permitted to play only five games unless their midget team’s season has ended. Also, each team is allowed to have only three 20-year olds on their rosters. Each team is permitted to carry only two non-North American players.8 Each of the CHL’s three member leagues are granted exclusive territorial rights to players from within North America. The WHL holds rights to players from the four western provinces, the western United States and the Yukon and Northwest Territories.
He’s originally from Winnipeg, but he probably goes to whatever team has an opening for a 20 year old.
Wheel of Location, Turn Turn Turn. Tell us the location that we will play.
Contributor to Lighthouse Hockey not sure if I'm the Sniper or the Enforcer.
Brandon...
Yeah, this report from a few months ago said his rights were still held by Brandon, but notes that they have a glut of over-agers already. So they may elect to trade/waive his rights.
