It arrives sooner than I expect every year, but this season it really snuck up on me. Michigan Hockey's 2024-25 season is just around the corner, T-minus 10 days to puck drop which means it's time for the season preview. As always I roll this out in four pieces over two weeks, grouping the first three by positional group categories before previewing the schedule and looking at the big picture. This year based on the lay of the roster, the schedule will go Defense (today), Returning Forwards (later this week), New Forwards + Goalies (next week), Schedule/Wrap (next week).
