Playing career[edit]

As a youth, Dumont played in the 2003 and 2004 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournaments with minor ice hockey team sfrom Rimouski.[1]

Dumont played four seasons with the Drummondville Voltigeurs in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League before he was signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Montreal Canadiens on April 30, 2010.[2] He recorded his first career NHL point on March 13, 2013, against the Ottawa Senators[3] and scored his first NHL goal on April 17, 2013 against the Pittsburgh Penguins.[4]

At the conclusion of his entry-level deal, in July 2013, Dumont was re-signed by the Canadiens to a two-year, two-way contract.[5] This was followed by an additional one-year, two-way contract extension on June 1, 2015.[6]

After 7 seasons within the Canadiens organization, Dumont left as a free agent to sign a one-year, two-way contract with the Tampa Bay Lightning on July 1, 2016.[7]

On June 28, 2017, the Lightning announced that it had re-signed Dumont to a two-year, $1.3 million contract extension.[8] Dumont made the Lightning's roster to open the 2017–18 season. He appeared in 7 scoreless games before he was placed on waivers by the Lightning and claimed by the Ottawa Senators on November 22, 2017.[9] On February 20, 2018, Dumont was placed on waivers by the Senators,[10] and was then claimed by the Lightning the next day.[11]

On July 1, 2019, Dumont signed as a free agent to a two-year, two-way contract with the Minnesota Wild.[12]

At the conclusion of his contract with the Wild, Dumont as a free agent returned to his former club, the Tampa Bay Lightning, in agreeing to a one-year, two-way contract on July 28, 2021.[13]

On June 9, 2022, Dumont signed a two-year contract with the Syracuse Crunch to remain with the Crunch and within the Lightning organization.[14]
