The University of Michigan coaching staff has locked down a goaltender for their future, and he has quite the pedigree.
Dylan St. Cyr, son of Manon Rheaume, has committed to the Maize and Blue.
UPDATE (5:25 p.m.): St. Cyr has confirmed his college commitment with MiHockey.

Next season, St. Cyr will be suiting up for USA Hockey’s National Team Development Program Under-17 Team in Plymouth. He’s a Honeybaked product, playing for the HB Midget Minor squad for the last two seasons.
He led the High Performance Hockey League with 16 wins this year, while recording a 2.05 goals-against average and .899 save percentage.
Rheaume was the first woman to suit up for an NHL contest, signing a contract and appearing in one preseason game with the Tampa Bay Lightning in 1992. She helped lead Team Canada to a silver medal at the Nagano Olympics, and she won gold at the 1992 and 1994 World Championships.
