In his fifth professional season, Bowey has 113 regular season AHL games to his credit with the Hershey Bears from 2015-18, accounting for 51 points (9-42-51), a plus-27 rating and 92 PIM. In 31 Calder Cup Playoff games he shows 10 points (2-8-10) and helped lead Hershey to the 2016 Calder Cup Finals.
A native of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Bowey has earned gold medals while suiting up for Canada at the 2015 IIHF World Junior Championship, 2013 IIHF World Under-18 Championship and 2012 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament.
