Playing career

LaLeggia played collegiate hockey for the Denver Pioneers in NCAA's Division I in the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) conference. LaLeggia came to the Denver Pioneers after playing junior hockey in the British Columbia Hockey League with the Penticton Vees.

On March 31, 2015, upon completing his senior year LaLeggia signed his first professional contract in agreeing to a two-year entry-level deal with the Edmonton Oilers.[1]

During his first season with the Oilers organization, LaLeggia recorded 27 points in 63 games with the Bakersfield Condors of the American Hockey League.[2] He improved his scoring totals the following season, recording 38 points.[2] On July 12, 2017, the Oilers re-signed LaLeggia to a one-year, two-way contract worth $700,000 at the NHL level.[3]

On July 1, 2018, having left the Oilers in the off-season as a free agent, LaLeggia agreed to a two-year, two-way contract with the St. Louis Blues.[4]
