Playing career

[edit]

Salcido was born in Los Angeles, California.[citation needed] As a youth, he played in the 1999 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with the Los Angeles Junior Kings minor ice hockey team.[1] He later moved to Minnesota to play for Shattuck-Saint Mary's high school, noted for its midget AAA hockey program.[2] From 2003 until 2006 Salcido attended Colorado College and was a member of the varsity ice hockey squad. Salcido was drafted by the Ducks in the fifth round, 141st overall of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.[3]

On August 2, 2006, Salcido signed with Anaheim on a three-year entry-level contract,[3] he was assigned to the Portland Pirates of the American Hockey League. On February 20, 2009, he made his NHL debut with the Anaheim Ducks against the Detroit Red Wings.[4] He signed a one-year contract with the Ducks on July 6, 2009.[5]

On May 13, 2013 Salcido signed with HC Amur Khabarovsk of the Kontinental Hockey League.[6] After 23 games with Khabarovsk and unable to attain a regular defensive role, Salcido returned to the Liiga with JYP Jyväskylä.[citation needed]

On July 24, 2014, Salcido transferred from JYP to return to SaiPa as a free agent on a one-year deal.[7] In the 2014–15 season, Salcido enjoyed his best season in the Finnish Liiga, contributing with 12 goals and 35 points in 59 games from the blueline with SaiPa leading the league in scoring for a defenseman.[citation needed]

Salcido left Finland as a free agent at seasons end, agreeing to a two-year contract with German club, ERC Ingolstadt of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga on May 20, 2015.[8] In the second year of his contract in the 2016–17 season, Salcido appeared in 52 games for 22 points before suffering a preliminary playoff loss to the Fischtown Pinguins to conclude his tenure with ERC.[9]
