Connor Corcoran

July 2023 – Corcoran signed a one-year AHL contract with the Bakersfield Condors after not being qualified by the Golden Knights. Pat Quinn

January 2022 – As was the case in 2020-21, the 21-year-old Corcoran has split this campaign between the Golden Knights’ AHL affiliate in Henderson and their ECHL affiliate in Fort Wayne. With the latter he has registered an impressive five goals and nine assists in 18 contests, similar to his 2019-20 scoring pace with Windsor in his final OHL season (19G, 35A, in 62 games). While he seems likely to spend significant time over the next few years in Vegas’ minor league system before a potential NHL debut, if he continues to increase his scoring and maintain his solid defensive presence, in time he could develop into an interesting two-way defenseman for Vegas.

March 2020 – Corcoran is strong defensively and is adding offense to his game. He is currently in his third year, manning the blue line for the Windsor Spirfires and has increased his production each season and plays all situations. Corcoran is a smart player, who skates well, and understands game situations. He is not one who makes end to end rushes but he knows when to pinch, or stay back, and uses his frame well in defending the front of the net. His overall game has progressed each year. If he continues on this path, he can find himself on the Vegas blue line within a few years. Danny McGillicuddy

October 2018 – As one of the younger players in the 2018 draft, Corcoran spent the past two seasons playing with the Windsor Spitfires in a more defensive role. He is a bit rough around the edges, but has spent some time with the Golden Knights’ AHL affiliate coach Rocky Thompson, who almost assuredly gave his input prior to the 2018 draft where Corcoran was selected in the 5th round.  He’s had a decent start to the year posting six points in his first 10 games and is on pace to double  his previous point totals based on his current pace.
