Career
Adrian Foster began his career as a hockey player in the Canadian Junior Western Hockey League , where he was active from 1999 to 2002 for the Saskatoon Blades and Brandon Wheat Kings . During this period he was selected in the NHL Entry Draft 2001 in the first round as a total of 28th player by the New Jersey Devils , for which he however never played. Instead, the attacker ran for four years for their farm team from the American Hockey League , the Albany River Rats . When New Jersey took over the Lowell Devils as the new AHL farm team, he also moved to Lowell within the AHL.
After Foster was active for the Houston Eros in the AHL in the 2007/08 season , he moved to EC Red Bull Salzburg from the Austrian Ice Hockey League for the following season , with whom he failed in the finals for the championship at EC KAC .
In the summer of 2009, he took part in a Philadelphia Flyers training camp , but could not achieve a contract. The American then signed a trial contract with Dinamo Riga from the Continental Hockey League , but they did not extend it. On January 26, 2010, the Frankfurt Lions from the German Ice Hockey League announced that they had signed the center for the remainder of the 2009/10 season .
After Foster completed seven games for Örebro HK in the Swedish HockeyAllsvenskan in the 2010/11 season , he moved to the Straubing Tigers in the German Ice Hockey League in January 2011 . The 2011/12 season Foster started first in the AHL with the Lake Erie Monsters , before moving to the Grizzly Adams Wolfsburg in the DEL. There he received no new contract after the end of the 2012 season.
