Zach Cohen (born April 14, 1987) is an American professional ice hockey player, who is currently an unrestricted free agent who most recently played with the Elmira Jackals of the ECHL. He previously played with the Lake Erie Monsters of the American Hockey League.
Cohen, who is Jewish, was born in Schaumburg, Illinois. He graduated from Kearney High School in Kearney, Nebraska.
Prior to turning professional, Cohen attended Boston University, playing four seasons of college hockey with the NCAA Division I Boston Terriers team, culminating in a National Championship title in 2009. In the Championship game, Cohen scored a vital game-tying goal with under a minute remaining, helping the Terriers secure their improbable victory over Miami University.
Upon completion of his collegiate career, Cohen joined three other teammates in signing to a two-year entry level contract with the Colorado Avalanche on March 23, 2010. Throughout the duration of his contract with the Avalanche, Cohen was assigned to its AHL affiliate, the Lake Erie Monsters, used primarily as a depth player.
Without a contract tender to remain with the Avalanche, Cohen signed as an unrestricted free agent to a one-year deal with the Bakersfield Condors of the ECHL on October 3, 2012. In the 2012–13 season, Cohen scored 11 points in 31 games before he was traded by the Condors to the Greenville Warriors in exchange for the rights of T.J. Fast, on January 9, 2013.
