Peter Schaefer began his career in 1993 with the Yorkton Mallers and continued his career a year later with the Brandon Wheat Kings in the Western Hockey League , where he recommended himself with his performances for the upcoming NHL Entry Draft 1995 and in the third round of the Vancouver Canucks was selected. In the 1995/96 season he stayed with the Brandon Wheat Kings and won the President's Cup with the team . Together with Mike Leclerc , Justin Kurtz , Cory Cyrenne , Wade Redden and Sven Butenschön he was one of the pillars of the team. He played in the WHL for another year and Schaefer scored over 100 points for the second time in a row. In 1997 he received the Western Hockey League Player of the Year award. In the 1996/97 season, the Canadian played for the first time in the Canucks farm team , at the Syracuse Crunch in the American Hockey League . During the 1998/99 season he made his debut for the Vancouver Canucks in the National Hockey League and scored four goals in 25 games by the end of the season.

A year later he made his breakthrough in Vancouver and Schaefer scored 31 points in 71 games. In the 2000/01 season he exceeded his previous year's figures and contributed 36 scorer points to qualify for the playoffs. After the end of the season his contract ran out and he decided to continue his career in Finland with TPS Turku , where he signed a contract in October 2001. After a year in Finland, he returned to North America. In September 2002 he was transferred to the Ottawa Senators . There he immediately earned himself a regular place and went to Italy for HC Bozen during the lockout in the 2004/05 season , where he also had a strong season. After his return to the Senators, Schaefer achieved around 50 scorer points in each of the two following seasons. In the 2006/07 season he was with the team in the finals of the Stanley Cup , but lost in five games against the Anaheim Ducks . Shortly after the end of the season, on July 17, 2007, he was transferred to the Boston Bruins for Shean Donovan . After a solid first season with the Bruins with 26 points, Schaefer was deported to the farm team for the Providence Bruins for the following season , with whom he participated in the game operations of the American Hockey League.

For the 2009/10 season , he continued playing. In October 2010 he signed a contract with the Vancouver Canucks. In January 2011 he moved to ERC Ingolstadt in the DEL . After 19 completed DEL games and 17 points for ERC Ingolstadt, Schaefer decided to leave the club in April 2011.

After a year-long hiatus, Schaefer was the assistant coach of the Surrey Eagles of the British Columbia Hockey League . In the meantime he was also general manager and president of the team, but mainly remained in the role of assistant coach. Before the start of the 2018/19 season, he was finally promoted to head coach.
