Sorry, That-One-Guy is right. NCAA players who are drafted and not signed within 3 years become free agents. The rules are that if the player does not sign with the team, and does not hire a professional agent, then he can go back to college until he and the team decide he's ready to play in the NHL.
I was confusing NCAA with the CHL. Players who are drafted from the CHL must be OFFERED a contract within a year and SIGNED within 2 years. If they are not they can choose to go back into the draft.
