Playing career

[edit]

He was selected 125th overall in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft by the Vancouver Canucks after having played two seasons of Junior A in the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL). Prior to turning professional, he played four years of college hockey with Northern Michigan University.

On June 22, 2011, Sarauer signed his first European contract with Danish team, Frederikshavn White Hawks of the AL-Bank Ligaen, on a one-year deal.[1] Sarauer scored at a point per game pace for the White Hawks before returning to North American at season's end, signing a one-year deal with the Las Vegas Wranglers of the ECHL on September 12, 2012.[2]

In the 2012–13 season for the Wranglers, Sarauer continued his offensive prowess in the ECHL, scoring 21 goals and 62 points on the top line in 70 games. On May 30, 2013, Sarauer opted for another contract abroad agreeing to a one-year contract with Hungarian club, SAPA Fehérvár AV19 of the EBEL.[3]

Sarauer spent four seasons with Volan, gaining Hungarian citizenship and used as a focal point offensively. As a free agent following the 2016–17 season, Sarauer opted to move to Austrian outfit, EC VSV, on a one-year deal on May 11, 2017.[4] Following the conclusion of his contract with Villach, Sarauer returned to Alba Volán Székesfehérvár.
