Early life

[edit]

The son of a transplanted Canadian, Lewis grew up in Salt Lake City where he learned to skate at the age of two. He began playing hockey at the age of five, eventually moving to Colorado Springs, Colorado at the age of 14 to play for the Pike's Peak Miners AAA team.[1]

Playing career

[edit]

Los Angeles Kings (2008–2020)

[edit]

Lewis was drafted 17th overall by the Los Angeles Kings in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, following an award-winning season in the United States Hockey League with the Des Moines Buccaneers. On July 14, 2006, the Kings signed Lewis to a three-year entry-level contract.[2] He played the 2006–07 season with the Owen Sound Attack of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) before making his professional debut with the Kings' top affiliate team, the Manchester Monarchs, to end the season.[3] Lewis made his NHL debut on December 19, 2008, vs. the Buffalo Sabres.[4] He scored his first NHL goal on December 20, 2008.[5]

On July 15, 2011, Lewis signed a two-year extension with the Kings worth $1.45 million.[6]

In the 2011–12 season, on June 11, 2012, Lewis won the Stanley Cup as a member of the Los Angeles Kings, their first championship in franchise history. He scored two goals in the clinching game six.[7] Lewis signed another two-year extension with the Kings on April 8, 2014, before helping the Kings to their second Stanley Cup.[8]

He signed a four-year contract with the Kings on June 25, 2016.[9] 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.

During the following 2017–18 season, Lewis put up a career-high 26 points despite being placed on injured reserve in February.[10] 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.[11]

Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames (2021–2023)

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 basis and upon impressing was later signed to a one-year, $750,000 contract by the Jets on January 13, 2021.[12] Later, on February 2, 2021, Lewis scored his first goal as a Winnipeg Jet - a shorthanded goal - in a 3–2 Jets win vs the visiting Calgary Flames.

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.[13] Lewis earned his first point with the Flames, an assist in a game against the New York Rangers. For only the second time in his career, Lewis played a full 82-game season in 2022–23 with the Flames.

Return to Kings (2023–present)

[edit]

On July 1, 2023, Lewis signed a one-year, $775,000 contract to return to his original club, the Los Angeles Kings, with whom he won the Stanley Cup twice.[14] After playing a full 82 game season for a second consecutive year, Lewis signed a one-year, $800,000 contract to return to the Kings on July 1, 2024.[15]
