Devin Cooley (born May 25, 1997) is an American professional ice hockey goaltender for the Calgary Wranglers of the American Hockey League (AHL) while under contract to the Calgary Flames of the National Hockey League (NHL).

Playing career

[edit]

Cooley spent time with the San Jose Jr Sharks,[1] Muskegon Lumberjacks,[2] Springfield Jr. Blues[3] and Wenatchee Wild as a junior before playing three seasons at the University of Denver. Cooley appeared in 32 games, amassing 6 shutouts, a .927 save percentage and a 1.93 goals against average.[4] Cooley signed with the Nashville Predators out of college[5] and primarily spent the 2020–21 season with the Predators' ECHL affiliate, the Florida Everblades. He spent the next two years mainly playing with the Predators' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Milwaukee Admirals, before signing a-one year contract with the Buffalo Sabres before the 2023–24 NHL season.[6]

Cooley was assigned to Buffalo's AHL affiliate, the Rochester Americans, to start the season, and amassed a 3–0–1 record before he was recalled on an emergency basis in order to backup Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. Cooley would serve as the backup to Luukkonen on October 29, 2023, but would not play. He was then sent back down to Rochester after the game.[7]

The Sabres traded Cooley to the San Jose Sharks on March 8, 2024, for a 2025 seventh-round pick.[8] Cooley was immediately assigned to the Sharks' AHL affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda, but was recalled shortly after in order to back up former University of Denver teammate Magnus Chrona.[9] He made his on-ice NHL debut for the Sharks on March 17, in a 5–2 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks.[10][11] Cooley recorded his first NHL win on April 6, in a 3–2 overtime victory over the St. Louis Blues.[12]

Cooley signed as a free agent to a two-year contract with the Calgary Flames on July 1, 2024.[13]
