Colin SullivanWhen Colin Sullivan signed with the Atlanta Gladiators of the ECHL last week, it essentially ended his association with the Montreal Canadiens and brought to a close the Pierre Gauthier draft era.
Sullivan was the seventh-round pick of the Canadiens, 198th overall, in 2011. He had committed to Yale for the following season, but in a sign of things to come in terms of lack of stability in his development, he decommitted from Yale in his final year of high school.
After being named to the 2012 Boys’ Hockey All-New England Team, he attended Boston College to begin his NCAA career in 2012-13. Being unhappy with his usage, he left Boston College the following year.
