Playing career
Samuels-Thomas played junior hockey with the Waterloo Black Hawks of the United States Hockey League (USHL) before attending Bowling Green State University to play the 2009–10 and 2010–11 seasons with the Bowling Green Falcons. He then transferred to Quinnipiac University[1] where he played the 2012–13 and 2013–14 seasons with the Quinnipiac Bobcats men's ice hockey team.[2][3] During his four years of college hockey Samuels-Thomas played 148 games, all within the ECAC Hockey Association, registering 50 goals, 54 assists, and 162 penalty minutes.[4]
On July 9, 2014, the Winnipeg Jets traded his NHL rights to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft,[5] and three days later, on July 12, 2014, the Buffalo Sabres signed him to a 1-year, entry-level contract.[6] The Sabres chose not to retain his rights after that season.[7]
On September 24, 2015, Samuels-Thomas was signed by the Ontario Reign.[8] He was briefly assigned to the Manchester Monarchs of the ECHL at the beginning of the season, but then recalled back to the Reign.[9]
