The Gabe Perreault era in New York is set to begin. 

After his sophomore season at Boston College came to an end Sunday night with a loss to Denver in the NCAA Regional Final, Perreault has been in talks with the Rangers about signing his entry-level contract and he is expected to be in New York on Tuesday, The Post’s Larry Brooks reported Monday. 

“He’s too smart for college hockey,” as one college coach put it to The Post. 

Hailed for his offensive talents, Perreault quickly became the Rangers’ top prospect after the organization drafted him No. 23 overall in 2023.

The Hinsdale, Ill. native made a name for himself at BC and in the last two World Junior Championships, in which Perreault played a critical role in Team USA’s first set of back-to-back gold medal wins in history. 

After finishing second in Division I in assists (41) and tied for fourth in points (60) his freshman season, Perreault was named a CCM/AHCA second team all-American, a Hockey East second team all-star and a New England all-star. He actually recorded at least one point in 30 of the 36 games he played. 

Despite a slight dip in his production in the 2024-25 campaign — 48 points (16 goals, 32 assists) in 37 games — Perreault was still an integral part of one of the most dynamic lines in the NCAA alongside Ryan Leonard, who signed his ELC with the Capitals Monday, and projected No. 1 pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, James Hagens. 

There is a sort of star quality to Perreault, who already partnered up with Armani to advertise their Acqua di Gio Profondo Parfum. I mean, how New York of him?
