In today's Chicago Tribune there is an article about a local High School
basketball star declaring himself eligible for the NBA draft.  By doing, this
player has made himself ineligible for any future college eligibility.  The
source for this ruling was NCAA legislative director Steve Mallonee.
 
My question is this:  Given the case that basketball players forfeit
eligibility by being drafted, how is that the college hockey players remain
eligible while being drafted?  Is it a totally different rule for hockey?  Or
are the players drafted regardless of their declaration or desire to be drafted?
