If he was enrolled in classes at the school during the second semester, even for one day, he'd have to sit out until the Fall 2018 semester.Aftet doing more research and seeing div 1 college hockey has special exemption like basketball or football ....With him leaving notre dame I believe before second semester started he could join minnesota in January because he sat out a year and did 2 semesters at minnesota without playing.
Ncaa has done transfer exception in situations like a player injury like in football where tge team starting qb is lost for the season due to injury in august before season starts and someone took his job snd takes the team to a bowl so new person would be the starter next year. . They have also allowed transfers for family reasons such as a parent having cancer. The losing university doesn't protest the move.
The NCAA is fairly arbitrary with their rulings and there is really no way of knowing what kind of decision they'll make. I've personally seen them rule a kid ineligible that played zero games in a season and was released from his NLI by his coach in hopes that he'd find a situation that allowed him to play, only to have the rug pulled out from under him and being ruled ineligible for the entire season just before it began.
Seemingly the only reliable way to transfer is the graduate transfer rule.
