In 13 games in 2020-21 with the Thunderbirds, Scott recorded 3 assists after recording 1 goal and 6 assists in 2019-20. Scott joins fellow former Thunderbirds Carter Cloutier and Michael Valdez who are also acquisitions of the Jr. Blues this season.

He also appeared in 3 games for the Dubuque Fighting Saints (USHL) where he recorded 1 assist. Alongside Scott, Michael Valdez also committed to Colorado College in what will be the third organization the pair have played together on.
