Career

Patrick Leahy began his career as a hockey player on the Miami University team , for which he was active from 1997 to 2001. During this period he was selected in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft in the fifth round as a total of 122nd player by the New York Rangers , for which he never played. Instead, the attacker ran in the 2001/02 season for the Trenton Titans in the East Coast Hockey League and the Hershey Bears , Portland Pirates and Bridgeport Sound Tigers in the American Hockey League . With the Tigers he failed only in the playoff final for the Calder Cup against the Chicago Wolves . After he spent the 2002/03 season with the Providence Bruins in the AHL, he received a contract with their cooperation partner Boston Bruins . For the team from Massachusetts he played six games in the National Hockey League in the following season , but was again mainly for Providence in the AHL on the ice.

Leahy bridged the lockout in the NHL during the 2004/05 season with the Providence Bruins. In the following season he scored four goals and was just as many templates for Boston in the NHL. Nevertheless, he then left the franchise and moved as a free agent to Boston's league rivals Nashville Predators . In these, however, he was also unable to prevail, so that he was only once in the NHL squad of Nashville in the 2006/07 season . The rest of the season he spent in their AHL farm team Milwaukee Admirals . Therefore, the American went to Europe in the summer of 2007, where he was signed by the EHC Linz from the Austrian ice hockey league .

After the end of the 2013/14 season, he ended his career.
