Corey Tropp (born July 25, 1989) is an American professional ice hockey player who is currently playing for the Chicago Blackhawks in the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected by the Buffalo Sabres in the 3rd round (89th overall) of the 2007 NHL Entry Draft. ==Playing career== Tropp played three seasons (2007–10) of college ice hockey at Michigan State University with the Michigan State Spartans in the CCHA at the NCAA Division I level. Tropp's MSU career was marred by controversy in 2009, when he and teammate Andrew Conboy brutally attacked Michigan Wolverines defenseman Steve Kampfer, in an on-ice incident where Conboy appeared to check Kampfer from behind and Tropp appeared to slash Kampfer in the neck. Both players were suspended by Spartans head coach Rick Comley for the remainder of the season. Tropp was honored for his outstanding college play when he was named to the CCHA Second All-Star Team in his final year. On November 4, 2011, Tropp made his NHL debut against the Calgary Flames. He scored his first NHL goal in his third game on November 8, 2011 against Ondrej Pavelec of the Winnipeg Jets.〔(Winnipeg Jets at Buffalo Sabres Game Boxscore - 11/08/2011 )〕 In a pre-season game against the Toronto Maple Leafs on September 22, 2013, Tropp fought and was knocked out by Maple Leafs' forward Jamie Devane, resulting in a broken jaw and a mild concussion. On November 27, 2013 the Buffalo Sabres waived Tropp and on November 28, he was claimed by the Columbus Blue Jackets. On June 30, 2015, Tropp, along with Jeremy Morin, Marko Daňo and Artem Anisimov, were traded by the Blue Jackets to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for Brandon Saad, Alex Broadhurst and Michael Paliotta. Tropp is one of just seven NHL players to wear the number 78.
