Playing career
Dave Lowry was drafted by the
Vancouver Canucks in the 6th round, 110th overall, in the
1983 NHL Entry Draft. He played three seasons with the
London Knights of the
OHL before joining the Canucks for the start of the
1985-86 NHL season. In Vancouver, he played for three seasons with only spending part of the
1987-88 season in the minors for the
Fredericton Express of the
AHL. On the
29th of September,
1988, just prior to the start of the
1988-89 NHL season, Lowry was traded to the
St. Louis Blues for
Ernie Vargas.
After spending most of the 1988-89 season with the
Peoria Rivermen of the
IHL, Lowry joined the Blues for the last 21 games of the season including 10 more games in the playoffs. Lowry stayed with St. Louis until the end of the
1992-93 NHL season. Dave Lowry was never much of an offensive threat as his highest goal total was 19, which he did twice, both times with the Blues, and his highest point total was 40, which was also with the Blues. He might not have been much of an offensive threat, but he worked hard game in and game out. Before he retired, he managed to play over 1000 NHL games.
Dave Lowry began playing for the
Florida Panthers for the
1993-94 NHL season. After five seasons in Florida, he was traded to the
San Jose Sharks near the beginning of the
1997-98 season along with a first round pick in the
1998 NHL Entry Draft (
Vincent Lecavalier) for
Viktor Kozlov and a fifth round pick (
Jaroslav Spacek) also in the 1998 draft.
After only three seasons in San Jose, Lowry went to the
Calgary Flames for the
2000-01 season where he played out his last four seasons, with the exception of a brief stint with the
Saint John Flames of the
AHL. In his last NHL season, he played only 18 games in the regular season acquiring one goal and one assist. In the playoffs, though, he played 10 games in Calgary's improbable
Stanley Cup run of
2004 that ended on the
7th of June in a loss to the
Tampa Bay Lightning.
