From 2012 to 2014 he was the head coach of the Bridgeport Sound Tigers of the American Hockey League , before he joined the Toronto Maple Leafs as Director of Player Development in December 2014 .

Career

Scott Pellerin first played from 1985 to 1988 for the Moncton Flyers , Notre Dame Midget Hounds and Notre Dame Hounds - for the latter in the second-rate Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League - in lower-class Canadian junior leagues before the striker studied at the 1988/89 season University of Maine began and went on the ice for their ice hockey team in Hockey East . During this time, the New Jersey Devils secured the NHL rights to the offensive player when they selected the attacker in the third round in a total of 47th position of the 1989 NHL Entry Draft . Already in his rookie season he impressed with 29 goals, 33 assists and 62 scorer points in 45 games and was named the best newcomer to Hockey East together with Rob Gaudreau after his debut season . His 62 points were scored in the 1988/89 season, the third most within the Hockey East; only Tim Sweeney from Boston College and Pellerin's teammate Dave Capuano were more successful.

In the following three seasons, the left-handed shooter maintained his high level of performance and managed to post over 20 hits each season for the University of Maine team. The 1991/92 season ended with the Canadian with a personal record of 32 goals, with which the striker, together with Jean-Yves Roy, topped the Hockey East's list of goalscorers. His achievements have also been rewarded with several nominations in national league teams and ultimately crowned with winning the Hobey Baker Memorial Award for the best college player of the year. Then it came for the New Jersey Devils to their AHL - farm team to the Utica Devils , for which Pellerin during the AHL playoffs in the spring of 1992, made his professional debut. The attacker spent the 1992/93 season mainly in the NHL squad of the Devils, but also played a few matches in the jersey of the Utica Devils. In the following season, the left shooter completed only one NHL game for the New Jersey Devils; the remaining part of the season spent the two-way striker with their new AHL farm team, the Albany River Rats .

In the 1994/95 season , the Canadian won the Calder Cup with the team after a sweep in the final series against the Fredericton Canadiens . Even after the triumph in the AHL, the left shooter was appointed to the NHL squad very sporadically by the New Jersey Devils. After his contract expired, the actor agreed in July 1996 on a contractual relationship with the St. Louis Blues . From then on, the attacker was only occasionally deported to the AHL farm team to the Worcester IceCats . During his four-year engagement in St. Louis, the winger earned a permanent place on an NHL team for the first time in his career. He also played the statistically most successful season in the St. Louis Blues jersey, when Pellerin scored 20 goals and 21 assists in 80 regular season games during the 1998/99 season . In the NHL Expansion Draft 2000 , the newly formed Minnesota Wild selected the left shooter.

In early March 2001, the Wild transferred their top scorer to the Carolina Hurricanes as part of a transfer deal . Pellerin had so far achieved a total of 39 points for the Minnesota Wild in 58 NHL games; the best value for a player in the new franchise in its debut season. His engagement in Raleigh , North Carolina, was also short-lived. For the 2001/02 season , the Canadian Junior World Champion from 1990 hired the Boston Bruins . Before the end of the season in January 2002, however, Pellerin found himself on the waiver list , from which the Dallas Stars secured his services. Another stop in his NHL career were the Phoenix Coyotes during the 2002/03 season . The attacker let his career end in calendar year 2004 in the jersey of the Worcester IceCats.

After finishing his playing career, Pellerin began working as an assistant coach for the Manchester Monarchs from the American Hockey League for the 2006/07 season . In July 2012, he was named head coach of the Bridgeport Sound Tigers . After two seasons he was fired and Brent Thompson hired as his successor.

In December 2014 it was announced that Pellerin is now working for the Toronto Maple Leafs as Assistant Manager of Player Development . There he was promoted to Senior Director of Player Development in August 2018 .

International

Pellerin represented his home country Canada at the 1990 World Junior Championship . The winger was on the ice in all seven matches of the maple leaves and contributed two hits to the gold medal win.
