It appears on twitter that it is a two school battle, and that he plans to arrive wherever in September.

^ I know that these grades are good, especially compared to other UM teams, but with 2 Frozen Fours , a National Championship and a yearly goal of being in the running for another National Championship, they are going to need more 5 stars than 4 stars.

This is a good thing. We know how weak our three current keepers are.
Actually, Luke has two more years after this one and the other two guys have one. Good timing on Michael's arrival. Wagon!

UMass commit Michael Hrabal is one of just two goalies to get an A rating from NHL Central Scouting in their first 2023 report.
Hrabal, just 17 years old, has a .940 save percentage and a 2.16 GAA in the USHL. Oh, and he’s over 6’ 6” tall.
(26 players - all born in 04 or 05 - received an A rating. Hrabel is one of two goalies. He is currently slated for Fall 2024.)
Edit: I didn't notice earlier that Ryan Leonard is on the list.

At that age, he won’t be in college for 3 - 4 years.
Remember that Freshman in Hockey are usually 2-3 years older than traditional college freshman. LP is 20 in his Sophomore year and will be 21 in March

Hahaha I thought the same thing!
But I would take his 14 goals and 32 points.
