Career

Western Hockey League

Travis Hamonic was the Bantam Draft of the Western Hockey League (WHL) in the ninth round of the Moose Jaw Warriors selected. In the 2006/07 WHL season he finally made his debut for the Warriors in the WHL. In his second WHL season he reached the play-offs for the first time with the Moose Jaw Warriors , where the team was subject to the Calgary Hitmen in the first round . A little later he was selected by the New York Islanders in the second round in a total of 53rd position in the NHL Entry Draft , an annual event at which teams of the National Hockey League can secure the rights to promising young players .

After the draft, the right-handed shooter completed two more seasons in the WHL junior league. In terms of scorer points, the 2009/10 season was the defender's personal most successful season. In 41 games played, Hamonic scored 11 goals and 33 assists for a total of 44 points. In this season he was transferred shortly before the transfer deadline in January 2010 by the Moose Jaw Warriors in exchange for the player Dallas Ehrhardt and several draft rights to the Brandon Wheat Kings . Hamonic completed ten games for the Wheat Kings after the move and was appointed to the WHL Eastern Conference All-Star team following the 2009/10 regular season .

The Brandon Wheat Kings qualified for the play-offs and defeated the Swift Current Broncos and the Saskatoon Blades in the first two rounds . In the third round, the Conference final, the team lost to the Calgary Hitmen in the best-of-seven series with 1: 4 games. Despite the defeat, the Brandon Wheat Kings participated in the 2010 Memorial Cup as they were automatically qualified to host the tournament. The Wheat Kings played their way to the finals in this competition, where they were eventually defeated by the Windsor Spitfires . Travis Hamonic was elected to the tournament's All-Star Team following the final. Four days after the final defeat, the Canadian signed a three-year entry - level contract with the New York Islanders .

National Hockey League

Travis Hamonic began his career as a professional player with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers , the farm team of the Islanders from the American Hockey League (AHL). After 19 games for the Sound Tigers in the AHL, in which he was the team's most successful defender with seven points scored, the defender was appointed to the New York Islanders squad. On November 24, 2010, the Canadian finally made his debut for the New York Islanders in the National Hockey League (NHL) in a game against the Columbus Blue Jackets . The Canadian then spent the rest of the 2010/11 NHL season with the Islanders. In total, he came to 62 NHL missions this season, in which he scored 26 points scorer.

In 2017 Hamonic received the NHL Foundation Player Award , which is given to players who are particularly committed to charitable causes. The Canadian is committed to helping children who have lost a parent; he himself lost his father when he was ten years old. Only a few days later, the Islanders parted ways with the defender after seven years and over 400 missions. As part of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft , Hamonic was transferred to the Calgary Flames with a conditional four-round vote in the 2019 or 2020 NHL Entry Draft . In return, New York received first- and second-round voting rights in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft as well as conditional second-round voting rights in the 2019 or 2020 NHL Entry Draft.
