Trevor Lewis (born January 8, 1987) is an American professional ice hockey center for the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League (NHL). Lewis appeared in parts of 12 seasons with the Kings after being drafted 16th overall by the team in the 2006 NHL entry draft; he spent one season with the Winnipeg Jets before signing with the Calgary Flames in 2021. He won Stanley Cup championships with the Kings in 2012 and 2014.
Lewis was born on January 8, 1987, in Salt Lake City, Utah, [1] to Canadian parents Randy and Linda. [2] Lewis began skating at the age of two and played organized hockey by the age of five. [3] Due to the low popularity of ice hockey in Salt Lake, Lewis often played on youth teams with only 12 players. [2] He played on youth hockey teams in the Salt Lake Valley and spent a year on Brighton High School's hockey team [4] alongside his cousins Chase and Cooper. As a freshman in 2002, Lewis was the Brighton Bengals leading goal scorer and helped the team qualify for the State championships. [5] After one year at Brighton, Lewis moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado to play for the Pike's Peak Miners AAA team to gain more attention from scouts. [3] [5] In his first season with the Miners, Lewis recorded 35 goals and 22 assists. He doubled this output in his second season with the team and finished with 118 points in 70 games. [6]
At the age of 16, Lewis was drafted by Cedar Rapids RoughRiders of the United States Hockey League (USHL) but failed to make the team. As such, he moved to Texarkana to play in the North American Hockey League. However, before the season started, Lewis was offered the chance to play with the Des Moines Buccaneers in the USHL and he immediately moved to join the team. [3] In his first season with the Buccaneers, Lewis finished eighth in team scoring with 22 points. [2] During the 2005 offseason, Lewis worked out more to improve his play. He significantly improved the following year and was named the USHL Player and Forward of the Year after recording 35 goals and 40 assists. As a result, Lewis was selected for the USHL All-Star Game and finished second in the fastest skater competition. [7] During the 2006 USHL playoffs, Lewis recorded two goals and nine assists en route to the USHL Clark Cup Finals. He was also honored with the Curt Hammer Award as the USHL's most gentlemanly player and was selected for the 2005–06 All-USHL first team. [8]
As a result of his sophomore season, Lewis also began to earn attention from NHL and college scouts. [2] Leading up to the NHL entry draft, Lewis was ranked 77th by The Hockey News. [9] He was expected to be drafted late in the first round or second round. [10] Lewis was eventually drafted in the first round, 17th overall, by the Los Angeles Kings in the 2006 NHL entry draft. Although he had originally committed to play college hockey at the University of Michigan, Lewis chose to forgo post-secondary education and start his career by signing a three-year, entry-level contract with the Kings. [11] [12] Following the signing, Lewis joined the Owen Sound Attack of the Ontario Hockey League for the 2006–07 season, where he recorded 73 points through 62 games. [3]
After the Owen Sound Attack were eliminated from the 2007 OHL playoffs, Lewis signed an amateur tryout agreement with the Kings' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Manchester Monarchs, to end the season. [13] He recorded four goals and two assists over the final eight games of the regular season. Although he played two games with the Monarchs in the 2007 Calder Cup playoffs, he failed to record a point. [1]
Lewis participated in the Kings 2008 training camp before being re-assigned to the Monarchs to start the 2008–09 season. [14] Following a game against the Manitoba Moose on December 17, Lewis was informed he was called up to the NHL level. [10] At the time of the recall, Lewis had recorded eight goals and 11 assists for 19 points over 28 games. [15] He met the Kings in Buffalo and made his NHL debut on December 19, 2008. [10] [2] Lewis scored his first NHL goal the following day, on December 20, in a 6–4 loss to the Detroit Red Wings. [2] He played four more games with the Kings and added two assists before being returned to Monarchs on December 30. [15] This would be his only recall of the season. He finished the 2008-09 regular season with 20 goals and 31 assists for the Monarchs. [1]
After participating in the Kings' 2009 training camp, Lewis was named to their opening night roster for the 2009–10 season. [16] He went pointless over five games, and served as a healthy scratch for another four, before being re-assigned to the Monarchs on December 30, 2009. [17] This would be his only time spent at the NHL level for the remainder of the season. [1] Lewis was again named to the King's opening roster to start the 2010–11 season and replaced his old jersey number with number 22. [18] He tallied a career-high three goals and 10 assists through 72 games. On July 15, 2011, Lewis signed a two-year extension with the Kings worth $1.45 million. [19]
In the first year of his new contract, Lewis helped the Kings win their first Stanley Cup championship in franchise history. He scored two goals in the clinching game six. [20]
Lewis signed another two-year extension with the Kings on April 8, 2014, [21] before helping the Kings to their second Stanley Cup. [22]
He signed a four-year contract with the Kings on June 25, 2016. [23] It would pay off, as in the 2016–17 season, Lewis would score an equal 12 goals and assists for 24 points, playing a full 82 games for the first time in his career. [24]
During the 2017–18 season, Lewis put up a career-high 26 points despite being placed on injured reserve in February 2018. [25] After appearing in 17 games for the Kings during the 2018–19 season, and recording three points, Lewis was again placed on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury. He was activated off injured reserve on February 9, 2019, after missing 37 games. [26]
As a free agent leaving the Kings organization after 12 seasons, Lewis remained unsigned leading into the pandemic-delayed 2020–21 season. He accepted an invitation to join the Winnipeg Jets training camp on a professional tryout (PTO) basis, [27] and upon impressing was later signed to a one-year, $750,000 contract by the Jets on January 13, 2021. [28] Later, on February 2, Lewis scored his first goal as member of the Jets in a 3–2 win against the Calgary Flames. [29]
On July 28, 2021, Lewis signed a one-year, $800,000 contract with the Calgary Flames, reuniting him with former Kings head coach Darryl Sutter. [30] The 2022–23 season was just the second time in his NHL career where Lewis played in all 82 games of the season. [31]
On July 1, 2023, Lewis signed a one-year, $775,000 contract to return to the Kings. [31] After playing a full 82-game season for a second consecutive year, Lewis signed a one-year, $800,000 extension on July 1, 2024. [32]
During the 2024–25 season, he scored his 100th and 101st NHL goals on November 5, 2024, against the Minnesota Wild. [33] On January 4, 2025, Lewis played in his 1,000th career NHL game, a 2-1 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning. [34]
Lewis and his wife Kara have two children together. [35]
