[edit] Playing career
Friesen played his junior years with the Regina Pats of the Western Hockey League (WHL). He was selected 11th overall in the first round of the 1994 NHL Entry Draft by the San Jose Sharks.
Friesen played nearly seven seasons with the Sharks, becoming their 3rd all-time leader scorer, but was traded to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim near the end of the 2000–2001 season. After playing the following season with the Ducks, he was traded to the New Jersey Devils for the 2002–2003 season where he won the Stanley Cup, while posting an impressive performance (10G, 4A,+10, 4GWG), especially in the hard-fought finals against Anaheim . On September 26, 2005, the salary cap troubled Devils traded Friesen to the Washington Capitals in exchange for a conditional 2006 draft pick. On March 9, 2006, he moved again to the Ducks for a second-round draft pick, but spent a significant part of the 2005–06 regular season sidelined with a groin injury.
Friesen was signed by the Calgary Flames on July 5, 2006 to a 1-year $1.6 million dollar contract for the 2006–07 season. After a disappointing season that had Friesen producing six goals and six assists in seventy-two games, the Calgary Flames chose not to re-sign Jeff Friesen. He was playing in the AHL as a Left Wing for the Lake Erie Monsters.
On 1/29/08 Jeff Friesen was released by the Lake Erie Monsters.
