Eric Regan (born May 20, 1988) is a Canadian–South Korean professional ice hockey defenceman for Anyang Halla of the Asia League Ice Hockey (ALH).

Playing career

Regan played major junior hockey in the Ontario Hockey League with the Erie Otters and the Oshawa Generals from 2004 to 2008.

Undrafted, on September 22, 2008, he was signed as a free agent by the Anaheim Ducks to a three-year, entry-level contract. Following the completion of his entry-level contract within the Ducks affiliations, Regan signed a one-year contract with German DEL team, the Hannover Scorpions, on June 7, 2011.

Following two seasons with the Scorpions, Regan opted to leave Germany and sign a contract in Asia with Japanese club, Nippon Paper Cranes, on August 9, 2013.

On May 29, 2015, Regan left High1 and joined his third Asia League club in as many seasons, signing with Anyang Halla initially on a one-year contract.

International play

After two years within South Korea, Regan was granted citizenship and made his debut for the national team at the 2016 IIHF World Championship Division I. He was a part of the historic South Korean team that gained promotion at the 2017 IIHF World Championship Division I to their first ever top ranked tournament at the 2018 IIHF World Championship in Denmark.

He was a member of South Korea's 2018 Winter Olympics team, in which they gained entry as the host nation.
