[3] As a result of his offensive output, Hoefenmayer was drafted by the Ottawa 67's in the 2015 Ontario Hockey League (OHL) Priority Selection. [4]

By January 2017, Hoefenmayer recorded eight goals and 15 assists for 23 points which earned him a 38th overall ranking by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau's midterm rankings list. [5] He concluded the season with 14 goals and 40 points in 62 games but dropped to 75th overall amongst North American skaters. [6] Despite this, he was selected 108th overall by the Arizona Coyotes in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. [7] Hoefenmayer also received the Ottawa 67's Top Defenseman Award at the conclusion of the season. [8]

After the Coyotes chose to leave Hoefenmayer unsigned, he remained in Ottawa to work with the 67s strength and conditioning coach and the skills team. [9] In his final OHL season, Hoefenmayer led defensemen with 26 goals and 82 points over 58 games. His 56 assists and plus-52 rating each ranked second in the league. [10] As a result, he was awarded the Max Kaminsky Trophy as the CHL's Defenceman of the Year [10] and selected for the 2019–20 OHL First All-Star Team. [11]

Professional

On April 4, 2020, Hoefenmayer signed as a free agent to a two-year American Hockey League (AHL) contract with the Toronto Marlies, primary affiliate to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

[13] As a result of his past seasons play, Hoefenmayer was named to the Maple Leafs' 2021 Prospect Tournament roster. [14]

On June 16, 2022, Hoefenmayer opted to continue his tenure within the Marlies organization, re-signing to a one-year contract extension for the 2022–23 season. [15]
