Playing career

Wesenberg was drafted by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim in the second round of the 1995 NHL Entry Draft.^[1] Anaheim traded his NHL rights in March 1996 to the Philadelphia Flyers for Anatoli Semenov and Mike Crowley.^[2] Wesenberg signed a contract with the Flyers that offseason and started his professional career with their American Hockey League affiliate, the Philadelphia Phantoms, in the 1997 Calder Cup playoffs.^[3] He was a member of the Phantoms’ 1998 Calder Cup championship team.^[4]

Wesenberg was called up by the Flyers late in the 1998–99 season and made his NHL debut on April 10 against the Washington Capitals. In what proved to be his lone NHL game, Wesenberg played only two shifts totaling 1 minute and 8 seconds before leaving the game with a mild concussion after fighting Washington’s Trevor Halverson.^[5]

Two months into the 1999–2000 season, the Flyers traded Wesenberg to the expansion Atlanta Thrashers for Eric Bertrand.^[6] He spent the rest of that and the following season playing for Atlanta’s minor league affiliates before retiring in 2001.^[7]
