About Jamie Drysdale
Jamie Drysdale (born April 8, 2002) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player who is a defenceman for the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League (NHL). He previously played for the Anaheim Ducks of the NHL. Internationally, Drysdale has represented Canada at multiple underage and junior competitions. Raised in Toronto, Drysdale played minor ice hockey in the Greater Toronto Hockey League and with St. Michael's College School. The Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) drafted him fourth overall in the 2018 OHL Priority Selection. In his two seasons of junior ice hockey, Drysdale was both an OHL First Team All-Rookie and All-Star. Considered a top prospect, Drysdale was selected sixth overall by the Ducks in the 2020 NHL entry draft. After recording 32 points in 81 games during the 2021–22 season, he missed significant time to injury the next two seasons, including a torn glenoid labrum that caused Drysdale to miss nearly the entire 2022–23 season. In 2024, he was traded to the Flyers in exchange for Cutter Gauthier.
