NHL: Collin Graf will make his NHL debut Saturday when the San Jose Sharks host the St. Louis Blues at SAP Center
Collin Graf practices with the San Jose Sharks on April 5, 2024 in San Jose, California. SAN JOSE — Collin Graf will make his NHL debut Saturday when the San Jose Sharks host the St. Louis Blues at SAP Center.
“I liked how comfortable he looked,” Sharks coach David Quinn said Saturday of Graf’s first practice. “He didn’t look overwhelmed by the situation. Your first NHL practice can be a little nerve-wracking and I thought he felt comfortable with the puck, I thought he was confident and acted like he belonged, which is a big piece of being a successful player in this league.”
Graf, 21, just finished his second season at Quinnipiac University and had 49 points in 34 games. He led the Bobcats to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division I tournament before they lost to No. 1 seed Boston College in overtime last week. Graf had upwards of two dozen teams interested in his services before he narrowed his decision down to six teams. After another round of interviews with those teams, he ultimately decided to join the rebuilding Sharks.
