Following three standout seasons with the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League, Zary was widely seen as a top prospect newly eligible for the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.[2] The NHL Central Scouting Bureau rated Zary as the 15th-best North American skater eligible for selection in 2020.[1]
At the draft, which was rescheduled to October 6, 2020, from its usual date in late June, Zary was selected by the Calgary Flames with the 24th overall pick.[3] On December 31, Zary was signed by the Flames to a three-year, entry-level contract.[4]
Calgary Flames
On November 1, 2023, Zary made his NHL debut with the Flames, scoring his first career NHL goal in a 4–3 loss to the Dallas Stars.[5]
During a game on March 20, 2026, Zary was removed due to a currently undisclosed injury from a game vs. the Florida Panthers. He was hooked first by A. J. Greer before subsequently boarded. Greer received a total of three penalties overall during the play, including another one for interference, along with the aforementioned penalties. [6]
