Playing career

Stevens played collegiate hockey with the Union Dutchmen in the NCAA Men's Division I ECAC Hockey conference. In his junior year, Stevens's outstanding play led the team to a Division I National Championship and he was rewarded with a selection to the 2013–14 ECAC Hockey All-Conference First Team.[1]

After his senior season with the Dutchmen, Stevens embarked on his professional career in agreeing to an entry-level contract with the Florida Panthers of the NHL on March 20, 2015.[2]

For the duration of his tenure within the Panthers organization, Stevens was allocated exclusively to the ECHL with the Manchester Monarchs and Tulsa Oilers. At the conclusion of his entry-level deal, Stevens was expectedly released as a free agent by the Panthers.

On August 7, 2017, Stevens opted to continue in the ECHL, securing a contract with the Wheeling Nailers.[3] He opened the 2017–18 season with the Nailers, appearing in 3 games, before he was signed to a professional tryout contract with AHL affiliate, the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins on October 25, 2017.[4]
