As of 2020, Deyell ranks 4th in the Saskatoon Blades all-time leaders in points[1] and 80th in the Western Hockey League all-time leaders in assists.[2] He led the Western Hockey League with 159 points in its 1995–96 season, earning the Bob Clarke Trophy; since then, no other player has surpassed this single-season performance.[3]

Playing career

[edit]

Deyell played major junior hockey with the Saskatoon Blades of the Western Hockey League. While playing with the Saskatoon Blades, Deyell was selected with the 126th overall pick in the 1994 NHL entry draft by the Toronto Maple Leafs. In his final season with the Saskatoon Blades, Deyell scored 159 points in only 69 games played, outscoring star NHL player Jarome Iginla.[4] He earned the Bob Clarke Trophy that season for being the top scorer. After his last season with the Saskatoon Blades, Deyell played with the St. John's Maple Leafs for three seasons.[5]

In April 1999, Deyell took a stick to his right eye during an AHL playoff game, when a player on the opposing team was following through on a shot, ending his career.[6] In September 2000, Deyell was signed by the Edmonton Oilers and went on to play 17 games for their AHL affiliate Hamilton Bulldogs that season.[7] That same season, Deyell played 4 games with HC Davos in the Swiss National League A and in the 2000 Spengler Cup with Jokerit.[8][9]
