With four of the top-5 picks from the draft (and 5 total first-rounders) all committed to Michigan for next season, I think it was expected that they'd all go to University for this season.

After they win the Frozen Four next year, they'll likely all sign their NHL contracts the next day.

I don't think there's any risk of any of them playing out the full four years.
