Playing career

Jay Rosehill was selected in the 7th round of the 2003 NHL Entry Draft (227th overall) by the Tampa Bay Lightning. He continued to play for the Olds Grizzlys of the AJHL in the 2003-04 season. The next season, he played for University of Minnesota Duluth of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. For most of the next four seasons, he was placed in the Tampa Bay Lightning farm system, playing for both Johnstown Chiefs of the ECHL and the Springfield Falcons of the American Hockey League in 2005-06 and 2006-07. Due to new Tampa Bay farm system affiliations, he played for Mississippi Sea Wolves of the ECHL and the Norfolk Admirals of the American Hockey League in 2007-08 & 2008-09. On March 10, 2009, he was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs organization for future considerations.

Rosehill started the 2009–10 NHL season on the starting roster for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and in his third game, he scored his first NHL goal against Marc-Andre Fleury of the Pittsburgh Penguins.

After joining the Norfolk Admirals on a try-out during the 2012–13 season, Rosehill was signed by NHL affiliate, the Anaheim Ducks, on a one-year contract on January 16, 2013. Rosehill was traded on April 1, 2013 to the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for forward Harry Zolnierczyk. Two weeks later Rosehill signed a two-year contract extension with the Flyers worth $1.35 million. The Flyers waived Rosehill at the beginning of the 2014–15 season. After he cleared waivers, the Flyers sent him to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms where he spent the entire season. An unrestricted free agent following the season, Rosehill signed a one-year AHL contract with Lehigh Valley.
