Collin Graf, a highly sought-after NCAA free agent, ultimately decided to sign with the San Jose Sharks after receiving offers from 24 NHL teams. On his first day of practice with the Sharks, Graf was positioned on the right wing alongside William Eklund on the left and Luke Kunin in the center. Despite uncertainty about his NHL debut due to a late flight, head coach David Quinn anticipates that Graf will have the opportunity to play over the weekend, especially with family members coming to support him.
When asked why he chose the Sharks out of all the other offers he received, Graf emphasized the importance of honesty in his decision. The Sharks’ transparent and forthcoming nature when it came to offering opportunities to players resonated with Graf and played a significant role in his choice to join their team. Quinn echoed this sentiment by highlighting how important it is for organizations to be open and honest with their players in order to build trust and credibility. This approach seems to have been a crucial factor in Graf’s decision as he was impressed by the sincerity and openness conveyed by the team during the recruitment process.
