That rule about CHL players can't play in the AHL untill the age 20 is stupid. But a rule is a rule, so why can't teams send them to European men leagues? Look at Mathews, playing in Swiss league has made wonders to him.
For example Marner doesn't look NHL ready right now, but Toronto can'd send him to AHL, and he won't get anything useful, destroying the CHL for one more season. And he could probably help some Sweden, Finnish, Swiss or even KHL team to become better and get a very helpful experience for himself.
