Career
Servatius played his junior hockey in the BCJHL, skating with the Salmon Arm Shuswap Totems for seven games during the 1982-83 season, and later with the Richmond Sockeyes in 1985-86
Servatius joined the newly formed Johnstown Chiefs in January 1988, as the AAHL season had already been in progress. He led all Chiefs defenseman with 10 goals and 33 points during the 1987-88 AAHL season. Servatius was also known for being one of the team's "tough guys" and was tied for seventh in the league (with teammate Rick Boyd) for penalty minutes.
During the 1988-89 season, the Chiefs made the jump from the AAHL to the newly formed ECHL, and Servatius was named captain upon former captain Rick Boyd's departure to the IHL. Servatius once again led the Chiefs defensemen in goals (8) and scored a career-high 55 points.
With Boyd's return, Servatius served as an alternate captain during the Chiefs 1989-90 season, and finished the season with 31 points in 53 games.
Personal
Servatius had a younger brother Ron who also skated on the 1988-89 Chiefs. Like his brother had done the previous year, Ron Servatius finished the season with 199 penalty minutes, which was the second-highest total on the Chiefs and tied for seventh-highest in the league.
Servatius retired after the 1989-90 season. He currently owns and operates Pro-Fish Guiding & Rafting, located in his hometown of Fernie, British Columbia.
