Richard "Richie" Regehr (born January 17, 1983 in Bandung , Indonesia , but grew up in Rosthern , Saskatchewan ) is a Canadian ice hockey player (defender) who was most recently under contract with the EC KAC from the EBEL . He is considered an offensive defender, who is regularly used in the majority game due to his hard and precise slap shot and scored a large number of scorer points, especially at his stations in Europe. His brother Robyn was also a professional ice hockey player, with whom he played for the Calgary Flames at times.
Career
North America
Regehr began his career in the 1999/2000 season with the Kelowna Rockets in the Canadian Junior Western Hockey League . In the following season he was able to show for the first time - for the defensive position - above-average offensive potential and scored 10 goals and 27 assists in a total of 71 games. In 2001, the Canadian moved within the league to the Portland Winter Hawks , for whom he played a total of two and a half years.
Regehr was signed as a free agent by the Calgary Flames in July 2004 as an undrafted player . During the NHL lockout in the 2004/05 season he played for the Lowell Lock Monsters , the farm team of the Calgary Flames in the American Hockey League . In the 2005/06 season , the defensive player was then sent by the Organization of the Flames to the new farm team, the Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights . When at the end of 2005 with Rhett Warrener and Roman Hamrlík two defenders of the Calgary Flames failed due to injury, Regehr was appointed to the Flames squad and was able to contribute to the deciding goal in his NHL debut in December 2005 . After three missions, he was sent back to the farm team before he again played some missions in the NHL at the beginning of 2006. Furthermore, the Canadian replaced his teammate Mark Giordano in the Canadian All-Star Team at the AHL All-Star Classic , where Regehr scored one goal and one assist. In the following season Regehr completed again six games for the Flames in the NHL, where he succeeded in December 2006 against the Los Angeles Kings his first and so far only goal. The right-handed shooter spent most of the season with the farm team in the AHL, for which he was only on the ice in 22 games due to a concussion.
Europe
In the summer of 2007, Regehr decided to move to Europe and played for the Frankfurt Lions in the German Ice Hockey League in the 2007/08 season , but failed with his team in the semifinals at the Kölner Haien . With 24 goals and 23 assists in 54 games, the Canadian was the most attacking defender in the league and took part in the DEL All-Star Game for the North American team. Regehr decided against a contract extension in Frankfurt and switched to the Eisbären Berlin for the 2008/09 season , where he became German champion three times in the following four seasons and won the European Trophy once . In April 2012 Regehr joined the Swedish club MODO Örnsköldsvik from the Svenska Hockeyligan and acted there in his second season as assistant captain of the team.
From the 2014/15 season , the Canadian was again on the ice in the DEL for EHC Red Bull Munich , where he will be trained by Don Jackson , as in Berlin . With the Munich team, he became German champions in 2016 and 2017 and left the club after the 2016/17 season. In May 2017 he was signed by the EC KAC from the EBEL . In order to be able to use the Norwegian Stefan Espeland , who was re-signed during the season , Regehr, who was already out due to injury at the time, was removed from the squad at the end of December 2017.
