Career
He was selected by the New York Rangers in the 4th round (100th overall) of the 2010 National Hockey League Entry Draft. He was the first hockey player raised in Florida to be drafted by the National Hockey League. Prior National Hockey League players who were born in Florida, but raised elsewhere include Val James, Dallas Eakins, Dan Hinote, and Blake Geoffrion. Yogan played major junior hockey in the Ontario Hockey League.
He was originally drafted by the Windsor Spitfires in 2007 in the 5th round of the OHL draft.
He had been ranked 19th in the draft but fell because teams were concerned he was not interested in joining the OHL. He joined the Erie Otters in 2008. In the 2008-2009 season, prior to becoming draft eligible, he suffered a concussion which may have caused him to slip in the draft.
Prior to the concussion, some analysts considered him a potential first round draft pick. In 2009-2010, Yogan scored 25 goals and 30 assists for 55 points for Erie.
In 2010-2011, he missed all but 10 games and the playoffs due to a shoulder injury.
He was traded to the Peterborough Petes in 2011. Foreign the 2011-2012 season, Yogan was named OHL player of the week for the week of March 12–18, 2012, during which he scored four goals and four assists for eight points with a +8 plus-minus rating in his last three OHL games. Foreign the season, Yogan finished 6th in the OHL with 41 goals and 15th in the OHL with 78 points.
Yogan also believes that he made significant improvements in his defensive skills during the season.
On March 21, 2012, the Connecticut Whale signed Yogan to an American Hockey League amateur tryout agreement, and on March 26, 2012, Yogan was signed by the New York Rangers to a three-year two-way contract. He played two games for the Whale in 2011, scoring two goals and one assistant
Both goals came in his pro debut on April 9, 2011. At the time he was drafted, Yogan regarded his hands and his shot as his best assets as a hockey player, and his speed as the biggest issue he needed to development
His lack of speed may have been the result of starting playing hockey later than most legitimate prospects.
On October 6, 2014 he was traded from the Rangers to the Florida Panthers organization along with Steven Kampfer in exchange for Joey Crabb. On September 10, 2015, Yogan returned to continue in the ECHL in signing a one-year contract with the Cincinnati Cyclones.
