Career

Drew Shore was born in Denver and raised in Littleton , Colorado . Until 2007 he played for the Detroit Honeybaked in the junior league Midwest Elite Hockey League . From the following season played for the USA Hockey National Team Development Program . In the 2009 NHL Entry Draft , the center was selected in the second round at a total of 44th position by the Florida Panthers . A little later he went to the University of Denver and played there from 2009 for the Denver Pioneers in the college and university sports league Western Collegiate Hockey Association . For the 2011/12 season, the attacker was named team captain of the Pioneers together with Dustin Jackson .

The striker ended the 2011/12 season with 53 points in 42 games and, like a season before, was the best scorer within the team. Shore was also reappointed to the All-Academic Team and received a nomination for the Second All-Star Team of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. In March 2012 he signed a three-year entry contract with the Florida Panthers from the National Hockey League and was then sent to their farm team San Antonio Rampage in the American Hockey League .

On March 31, 2012, the attacker made his debut for the San Antonio Rampage in the American Hockey League when he was on the ice in the game against the Rockford IceHogs and posted an assist. In January 2013 Shore also made his NHL debut and completed 43 games for the Panthers by the end of the season. The following season 2013/14 he also spent in part in the NHL and AHL. After he was used exclusively in the AHL during the first half of the 2014/15 season, the Panthers exchanged him for Corban Knight with the Calgary Flames . For the Flames he made his NHL debut a few days later in a 4-1 win over the Arizona Coyotes , but was sent a few days later to the Adirondack Flames , the then farm team in the American Hockey League .

After the 2015/16 season, his contract in Calgary was not extended, so he decided to move to Europe for the first time , signing a one-year contract with EHC Kloten in the Swiss National League A. At the end of December 2016 he took part in the Spengler Cup as a loan player , represented the colors of HC Davos and was appointed to the All-Star team. After Kloten could not qualify for the playoffs and his season seemed to end in mid-March 2017, he was signed by the Vancouver Canucks from the NHL and came there to 14 missions by the end of the season. A little later, the attacker returned to Switzerland when he signed a two-year contract with the ZSC Lions in May 2017 . In the first half of the 2018/19 season, Shore regularly struggled with injuries and was therefore rarely used, so that in December 2018 he decided to switch to Kunlun Red Star in the KHL . By the end of the season he had 18 missions and 11 points scorer. In the summer of 2019 he moved to HK Dinamo Minsk and scored 17 points in 24 KHL games for the club from the Belarusian capital before he was dismissed in November 2019. About a month later he received a contract with Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod , where he ended the season.

International

Shore represented the US national team for the first time at an international tournament at the World U-17 Hockey Challenge 2008 , which ended with the US Americans winning silver. The right-shooter had his first appearance in the world championships at junior level at the U18 Junior World Championship in 2009 . At this tournament he won the gold medal with the USA after beating the Russian selection in the final . He had another assignment at the U20 World Junior Championship in 2011 , in which the team finished third.
