History
McCollum, who hails from upstate New York, played junior "B" hockey in Wheatfield before signing with the Guelph Storm in the fall of 2006.
2006-07: McCollum began the season expected to be the backup to Storm veteran netminder Jason Guy, but it quickly became apparent that McCollum would be the number one goaltender in Guelph. After winning academic accolades early in the season, he set a Guelph record for number of shutouts by a rookie netminder (five). In 55 regular season games, McCollum had a 26-18-3-7 record. Additionally, he maintained a 2.39 GAA and .918 save percentage. McCollum was named to the OHL All-Star Game and was nominated for OHL Goaltender of the Year.
2007-08: McCollum continued his excellent play this past season. In 51 games, he was 25-17-3-3, with a 2.50 GAA and a .914 save percentage. He was Guelph's Academic Player of the Year, and received the CHL Goaltender of the Week award three times during the season. Additionally, McCollum was named OHL Goaltender of the month in December 2007.
Talent Analysis
McCollum demonstrates excellent rebound control, stays square to the shooter, and plays an extremely focused game. He is a very strong competitor, who could be a franchise goalie for an NHL team.
