Nicklaus Perbix (born June 15, 1998) is an American professional ice hockey defenseman for the Tampa Bay Lightning of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was a member of United States national team at the 2022 Winter Olympics.[1]

Playing career

[edit]

Perbix was a star player for Elk River High School, scoring well over a point per game as a senior and being a finalist for the Mr. Hockey Award.[2] After being selected by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the NHL Draft, he played a season of junior hockey for the Omaha Lancers before he began attending St. Cloud State University. He made an immediate splash in the college ranks, helping the Huskies finish atop the NCHC standings, and was named to the conference All-Rookie team. After his sophomore season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Perbix came back the following year in good form and was instrumental in getting St. Cloud to the program's first NCAA championship appearance.

Perbix continued to increase his scoring output for his senior season and was firing at a point per game pace for most of the year. After the NHL announced that they would not be sending any players to the Winter Olympics due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[3] Perbix was selected as a member of the United States team.[4] On March 31, 2022, the Tampa Bay Lightning signed Perbix to a one-year, entry-level contract commencing in the 2022–23 season. He was immediately assigned to join AHL affiliate, the Syracuse Crunch, on an amateur tryout contract for the remainder of the season.[5]

On October 18, 2022, Perbix made his NHL debut with the Tampa Bay Lightning in a loss to the visiting Philadelphia Flyers at Amalie Arena.[6][7] On October 26, 2022, Perbix recorded his first career NHL assist and point in a 4–2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center.[8][9]

On November 5, 2022, Perbix scored his first career NHL goal in a 5–3 Lightning win over the Buffalo Sabres.[10]

On January 2, 2023, the Lightning signed Perbix to a two-year extension that would keep him on the team through the 2024–25 season.
