He is known for being a well-traveled, high scoring forward who has played for 35 different teams[1] across North America and Europe.
Trevor Jobe suited up for five different Junior clubs in the Western Hockey League including three during the 1985-86 season.
Jobe, who at the time was being treated for a knee injury, was released for an "undisclosed violation of team rules".
The following year he joined the Moose Jaw Warriors and showed his offensive acumen scoring 54 goals in 58 games.
At one point, General Manager Gord Stellick considered Jobe to be "one of five or six new faces who probably will be in this year's edition of the club".
[3] Instead, Jobe was sent to the Maple Leafs' AHL affiliate in Newmarket, Ontario, where he would score 47 points in 75 games.
Jobe did see some ice time in the preseason with the Maple Leafs, including a fight with defenseman Gord Kruppke,[4] a former 2nd round pick of the Detroit Red Wings.
[5] Upon Jobe's return to the Norfolk Scope, he (along with former Admirals teammate Alain Raymond) were "bombarded with boos and obscenities".
As a free agent at the start of the 1991–92 season, Jobe signed with the Richmond Renegades,[7] because of his relationship with coach Dave Allison.
On January 15, 1992, with the Renegades in a seven-game losing streak and looking for a shakeup, they traded Jobe (their leading scorer at the time) and Steve Scheifele, Richmond's fourth-leading scorer to the Nashville Knights for two contract-pro forwards,[8] Andy Akervik and Kevin Sullivan,[9] who were property of the IHL's Kansas City Blades earlier in the season.
Jobe would also become the first person to score 50 goals in 37 games, a feat later accomplished by the Wichita Thunder's Paul Jackson.
Jobe would start the 1995-96 ECHL season with the Johnstown Chiefs, thanks to a connection from his Nashville days: former head coach Nick Fotiu.
At approximately 3:00 am, Jobe crossed the center line on Milgen Road near Gunboat Drive and wrecked into a 1995 Geo Metro driven by 20-year-old Audry Thomas[22] that contained two other passengers.
Jobe would reach the finals with the Generals, but would lose to eventual champion Quad City Mallards in seven games.
On December 29, 2000, Richmond Renegades winger Rod Taylor would score his 325th career goal, breaking Jobe's all-time mark of 324.
[29] On December 7, Jobe was suspended by the league[30] for a run-in with UHL Vice President Mitch Lamoureux.
As a result of the hearing, Jobe was given a 180-day work release program,[33] permitting him to leave jail for practices and games only.
[36] Shortly after, Jobe would play in the Allan Cup tournament with Forestville Excavation A Savard of the Quebec Northeast Senior Hockey League (LSNEQ).
Due to time constraints at the end of the season, the LSNAQ and the Lique Cenrale de Hockey (CHL) faced off to eliminate one league before the end of the season with the first-place teams as of December 18 facing each other in a two-game total goal series.
