Playing career
Schmidt played college hockey with the Minnesota Golden Gophers in the NCAA Men's Division I WCHA conference. In his junior year, Schmidt's outstanding play was rewarded with a selection to the 2012–13 All-WCHA First Team.[1]
After signing with the Capitals as an undrafted free agent in April 2013,[2] Schmidt played the final eight games of the 2012-13 regular season and five postseason games with the Hershey Bears, the Capitals' American Hockey League affiliate.
