Jordan Dumais Faces Legal Charges and Court Appearance

Now, Dumais, who's just 19, was arrested back in March in Halifax. He was hit with a five-game suspension by the Mooseheads due to what they're calling an off-ice infraction.

This isn't the first time Dumais has made headlines. Last year, he was the MVP of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL), with 140 points in 64 games with the Mooseheads.

Yet, it hasn't been a smooth ride for Dumais this season. He's been dealing with injuries, including needing hernia surgery and aggravating a hip injury while playing for Team Canada in the World Juniors. Despite all that, he recorded 16 goals and 47 points in just 21 games with Halifax.

Dumais, a 2022 third-round pick, is set on making a solid push to join Columbus out of camp next season. Hopefully, he can put these setbacks behind him and get back to doing what he does best—lighting up the scoreboard for the second-seeded Mooseheads as they start their chase for the QMJHL championship against the seventh-seeded Acadie-Bathurst Titans.
