However, the Aeros folded after the 1977 season, and Grahame signed with the National Hockey League"s Boston Bruins for the 1977-1978 National Hockey League season.

He also continues to conduct goalie clinics for ice hockey and inline hockey goaltenders
He is responsible for the overall supervision of all 17 varsity sport programs at Denver. Grahame graduated from the University of Denver in 1973 with a Bachelor of Arts in physical education and was one of the most successful hockey players in school history.
