Before turning pro, the forward played four seasons at the University of Michigan from 2010-2014 and appeared in 141 games while registering 61 points (24 goals, 37 points).

Before his time at school, DeBlois played prep school hockey at The Hotchkiss School in Connecticut and spent one year in the United States Hockey League (USHL) with the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders during the 2009-10 season.
