Career
From 2008 to 2010, Gedig played for the Merritt Centennials, Cowichan Valley Capitals and Vernon Vipers in the BCHL. He was selected by the New Jersey Devils (round 7, 204th overall) in the 2009 NHL draft.
Gedig enrolled at Ohio State University in 2010 and served as captain his junior and senior year. He was named 2011 Rookie of the Year and 2013 Best Defensive Player by his Ohio State teammates.
In the 2014-15 season, he saw the ice in 30 games for ECHL's Colorado Eagles, tallying three goals and 14 assists. Gedig landed his first job overseas in June 2015, when putting pen to paper on a one-year deal with Stjernen, a member of Norway's GET-Liga. He exploded statistically in the 2015-16 season, scoring 26 goals in 49 contests for Stjernen while dishing out 29 assists. His production led all defensemen in scoring and goals scored. In a bid to help their team re-sign Gedig for a second season, the Stjernen fans started raising money, but the Penticton native eventually opted to accept an offer from Switzerland. In March 2016, Gedig inked a two-year deal with EHC Olten of the National League B (NLB).
