There is an NC$$ rule (yes, another one :-) stating that a college hockey
player loses one year of eligibility for every year he participates in organ-
ized, non-collegiate hockey (i.e. junior leagues) after reaching the age of
20. I'm not sure if this is across all sports or is hockey-specific, though
because of the prevalence of hockey junior leagues, I would guess it's the
latter. Tom Glavine would thus have all his hockey eligibility (assuming
his "advanced" age was not a factor) because he didn't play hockey past the
age of 20.
