I just checked. 11 from the GTHL, 7 from the OMHA.

How does that look per capita?

OMHA, GTHL, these organizations have ZERO to do with a kid talented enough to get drafted. ZERO. The only thing they dictate is where you can play and how much money you have to pay. And make up such dumb rules as to just protect their balance sheet. Don't tell me what vaccine to get but restrict me and my money on where to play hockey. Dumb.

It will help the disparity of talent so I hope it happens. Maybe just bump NRPs to 5 at all ages and then allow kids to try out at lower ranked centres.
