Growing up, Gregor played in the Beaumont Minor Hockey Association[7] and Alberta Midget Hockey League (AMHL).[3] While playing for the Leduc Oil Kings Bantam in the 2013–14 season, Gregor led the AMHL with 21 goals and 30 points through 35 games.[3] Gregor was selected in the third round, 55th overall, by the Victoria Royals in the 2013 WHL bantam draft,[8] the same city that his father played in.[9]

Gregor returned to the Oil Kings for the 2013–14 season. On January 6, 2014, the Royals traded Gregor's rights to the Moose Jaw Warriors in exchange for Travis Brown.[10] He began the 2014–15 season with the Warriors, recording six points through eight games before breaking his collarbone. He managed to return for two more games in late December, but reaggravated the injury and missed the remainder of the season.[11] During the 2015–16 season, Gregor was selected to represent Team Cherry in the CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game.[12] He finished the season with 28 goals and 73 points to earn the team's Most Sportsmanlike Player and Rookie of the Year Award.[13] Gregor also accepted the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Year Award.[14]

Gregor returned to the Warriors for the 2016–17 season. Prior to the season beginning, he was named an alternate captain alongside Tanner Jeannot and Josh Thrower.[15] On December 11, Gregor – alongside a 2018 eighth round pick – was traded back to the Royals in exchange for Ryan Peckford and a 2018 fourth round pick.[16] He finished the season with 65 points in 60 games split between the two clubs.[17]

On July 25, 2018, the Royals traded Gregor to the Prince Albert Raiders.[18] He recorded 88 points in 63 games for the club during the 2018–19 season. The Raiders were awarded the Ed Chynoweth Cup as league champions after defeating the Vancouver Giants in seven games.[19] Gregor recorded 24 points in 23 postseason games. The Raiders, however, were unsuccessful in winning the Memorial Cup.[20]
