When the 2019-20 NHL season started Wednesday night, there were many players who used to dream of getting to “The Show” by doing their thing at the Brandt Centre wearing the historic crest of the Regina Pats.

Nine former Pats are in the NHL. The nine are

• Sam Steel (Anaheim Ducks–pictured)
• Dryden Hunt (Florida Panthers)
• Austin Wagner (Los Angeles Kings)
• Jordan Weal (Montreal Canadiens)
• Cale Fleury (Montreal Canadiens)
• Jordan Eberle (New York Islanders)
• Libor Hajek (New York Rangers)
• Martin Marincin (Toronto Maple Leafs)
• Chandler Stephenson (Washington Capitals)

The Kelowna Rockets are the WHL team with the most players in the NHL at 14.
