“We’re very excited to be able to honour Jamie by placing his name in the rafters of the PMC,” said Michael Oke, general manager and vice president of operations. “Jamie has had a very decorated career and we are very proud to be able to call him an alumnus. His name will fit very well alongside the other nine alumni that have been recognized by the Petes.”

The Cloquet, MN native played two seasons for the Petes from 1993 to 1995 after being selected by the team in the 1993 OHL Priority Selection.

In his two years with Peterborough, Langenbrunner scored 75 goals and added 115 assists for 190 points in just 127 games, adding another 32 points in 18 playoff games.

"When Mike approached me in Plymouth about being honoured, I was very taken back by it,” saidd Langenbrunner. “I know the history of the Petes and all the great players that have played in Peterborough. I feel very grateful, privileged, and honoured to be recognized and I am excited to see some old faces, billets, and teammates at the PMC."

After his time in Peterborough, Langenbrunner played 18 seasons in the NHL between the Dallas Stars, New Jersey Devils and St. Louis Blues. He won two Stanley Cups with the Stars in 1999 and the Devils in 2003. He played in 1109 NHL games over 18 years, picking up 663 points, while also serving as Captain of the Devils from 2007-2011.

Langenbrunner has represented the United States at multiple levels, most notably winning a Silver Medal in the 2010 Olympic Games while serving as team Captain. In 2023, he was inducted into the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. Langenbrunner retired from hockey in 2014, joining the Boston Bruins staff in 2016. He now serves as the Bruins' Assistant General Manager, a role he has held since 2022.
