Congratulations to alum Dylan Peterson, who made his National Hockey League debut on Tuesday evening for the St. Louis Blues!

Dylan, a 6’4 forward had 8:57 in ice time and finished +1 while adding 4 hits. He also capped his off his NHL debut with a fight late in the 3^rd period.

Back in 2020, the Blues selected Dylan in the 3^rd round, 86^th overall in the NHL Draft. After he completed 4 years at Boston University, he joined the Blues American Hockey League affiliate, the Springfield Thunderbirds. He would play two full seasons there from 2024-2026, and at this year’s training camp, he had a strong showing but was one of the final cuts for the Blues.

On October 10^th, Dylan received the news that he would be called up and make his NHL debut shortly after. It has been 6 years in the making for Dylan who always dreamed of pulling on the Blues jersey.

The Blues next game is October 15^th and we hope to see Dylan in the lineup again!

Dylan is now the 5^th CIHA alumni to play in the NHL.
