Assuming your  date  column is not actually a date   Select convert varchar 8  cast  12 24 2016  as date  112    or   Select format cast  12 24 2016  as date   yyyyMMdd     Returns  20161224

In SQL Server  you can do   select coalesce format try convert date  col  112    yyyyMMdd    col    This attempts the conversion  keeping the previous value if available   Note   I hope you learned a lesson about storing dates as dates and not strings
