Career

The left winger completed only 33 appearances in his rookie year and scored seven points , but he established himself in the Tigers' squad the following season. His second game year he finished with 53 points in the regular season, whereupon he let 16 points follow in 17 playoff games, which were partly responsible for the fact that Medicine Hat won the President's Cup , the championship trophy of the WCHL, for the first time . The team also took part in the prestigious Memorial Cup , which they finished third and last. In the following two years was Dean who is in the 1974-75 season, managed 115 points scorer in the top ten point earners the league and the League was called to the First All-Star Team, an integral part of the squad. As a result, the 20-year-old was both in the 1975 NHL Amateur Draft behind Mel Bridgman in second overall position of the Kansas City Scouts from the National Hockey League and the Edmonton Oilers from the World Hockey Association, which competes with the NHL, in sixth place in the WHA Amateur Draft Selected in 1975 .

Before the attacker switched to the professional field, however, the Oilers transferred him in exchange for a first and third round suffrage in the 1976 WHA Amateur Draft and an undisclosed sum of money to league competitor Phoenix Roadrunners . There Dean made his professional debut in the WHA in the 1975/76 season and played 71 games for the team from the state of Arizona , in which he scored 34 times. For the following season, the Canadian decided to move to the NHL. Since the Kansas City Scouts, who had acquired his transfer rights for the league in the previous year's draft, had since been relocated to Denver , the offensive player played for the successor franchise Colorado Rockies at the beginning of the 1976/77 game year . With 39 points - his career best in the professional area - in 79 appearances, he confirmed the values ​​from his rookie year in the competitive league. Nevertheless, the Rockies separated from him in August 1977 and transferred him to the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for Mark Suzor .

With the Flyers, the winger no longer got the minutes he had previously received in Phoenix and Colorado. Over a period of one and a half years, he only played 86 games for the team, but scored 42 times. At the beginning of the 1979 calendar year he finally found himself on the Maine Mariners farm team in the American Hockey League . With the team at the end of the season he successfully defended the Calder Cup title . The Flyers then left the former first-round draft pick unprotected in the 1979 NHL Expansion Draft , but finally kept it after losing a left winger to the Winnipeg Jets in the draft with Dave Hoyda . As a result, Dean failed to earn a place in the NHL squad and he stayed for another season with the Mariners in the AHL.

In June 1980, the departure from Philadelphia took place when he was sent in a transfer business to the Edmonton Oilers, who had meanwhile moved from the WHA to the NHL. Edmonton gave it to Ron Areshenkoff and a ten- round vote in the upcoming 1980 NHL Entry Draft to the Philadelphia Flyers. The change brought no change for Dean. After spending a year with the cooperation team Wichita Wind in the Central Hockey League and the Fredericton Express in the American Hockey League and having played in the minor leagues for over three and a half seasons in a row , he gave it up in the summer of 1981 at the age of 26 Known at the end of his active career.
