2008-09: Peca played for the Ottawa Valley Titans in the OEMHL Midget AAA league. He was selected by the Windsor Spitfires in the 8th round (141st overall) of the OHL Priority Draft.
2009-10: Peca spurned the OHL to play with the Pembroke Lumber Kings of the Tier 1 Central Junior Hockey League (CJHL) (and maintain his NCAA eligibility). He was named Rookie of the Year in the CJHL after scoring 21 goals with 26 assists in 60 games for the Lumber Kings. Peca added 3 goals with 3 assists in 15 games in the post-season. Peca committed to playing college hockey at Quinnipiac University in 2011-12.
2010-11: Peca was the most dominant forward in Canadian Tier 1 Junior Hockey, leading the Pembroke Lumber Kings to the CJHL and RBC Cup championships. In 50 regular season games, Peca scored 26 goals with 46 assists and scored 10 power play goals and 3 game-winners. In the playoffs, he scored 11 goals with 10 assists in 14 games. Peca represented Canada East in the World U-19 Challenge and scored 2 goals with 2 assists in five games. Following the season, Peca was the subject of a tug-of-war of sorts between the OHL – where first Kingston and then Kitchener traded for his OHL rights – and the QMJHL, where Patrick Roy’s Quebec Ramparts hoped to sign him. Peca, instead, enrolled at Quinnipiac and will begin his college career in 2011-12. Peca was selected by the Lightning in the 7th round (201st overall) of the 2011 NHL Draft.
