How would you put these leagues in order for talent and scouting for D1, OHL, Pro etc?

Question

Junior A leagues

USHL

OPJHL

NAHL

BCHL

etc.

Answer 1

USHL - Tier I

BCHL - Tier II

OPJHL - Tier II

NAHL - Tier II (alternative to USHL)

normally players in those junior A leagues are drafted to the CHL or NCAA type league. From there they are usually drafted into the NHL. The USHL has the highest chance of being drafted directly into the NHL from those listed though I believe.

Im not an expert though...LITY would probably know best.

You are thinking of Major-Junior teams governed by the CHL....like OHL, QMJHL, and WHL.

Answer 2

Not that my opinion matters, but I would say...

OHL

D1

OPJHL

BCHL

USHL

NAHL

**djup, but doesn't it seem like more players come out of the Canadian leagues, regardless of tiers?

**True, I guess I didn't consider a stop off before the NHL lol.
