Dumont will miss Tuesday's matchup with Minnesota after sustaining an ankle injury, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dumont is averaging a mere 9:00 of ice time in his previous 10 outings and has just one helper to show for it. In addition to his lone assist, the natural center has tallied 13 shots on goal, 23 hits and three blocks over that stretch. Given his limited offensive production, most fantasy owners are unlikely to be impacted by his absence from the lineup.

Dumont was claimed off waivers by the Senators on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

With Ottawa currently dealing with a number of injuries their forward corps, Dumont will immediately be able to fill a need and is apparently preferable to a recall. The Quebec native has accumulated just seven points in his NHL career to this point and will likely continue to serve as a checking line player on his new team, making him undesirable in most fantasy formats.

Dumont was waived by the Lightning on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

After serving as a healthy scratch in 13 games and recording no points in the seven games he did suit up for, Dumont has finally been cut from Tampa Bay's active roster. Assuming he clears waivers, the Quebec native will likely be reassigned to AHL Syracuse.

Dumont has no points in seven games this season.

EDGE Analysis

Dumont just can't get consistent ice time with the red-hot Bolts. He has four PIM and 11 shots, but until he gets regular time, Dumont just won't help you in fantasy.

Dumont will be scratched against Detroit on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Even though Dumont had a strong outing Thursday against Pittsburgh throwing three shots on goal and notching two hits, he'll sit out his second straight game. Dumont figures to remain a bench forward for Tampa Bay throughout the 2017-18 season, but cannot be sent down to the AHL due to his one-way contract this year.

Dumont inked a two-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Wednesday worth $650,000 annually.

EDGE Analysis

Like many of his peers, Dumont's contract will become a one-way deal starting with the 2018-19 season which will force the Lightning to either keep him on their 23-man roster or risk losing him via waivers. In the meantime, the 26-year-old will certainly be looking to increase his games played (39) and point total (4) from last year. Where the center begins the season -- AHL or NHL -- will largely depend on his performance during training camp this fall.

Dumont cleared waivers Monday and was reassigned to AHL Syracuse, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

In order to get Dumont some extra time in the minors, the Lightning were required to waive him after he logged 39 games this season. Fortunately for the team, the 26-year-old tallied just two goals and a pair of helpers this year, so the rest of the league weren't too eager to snatch him up. The center averaged a mere 9:40 of ice time, which likely factored into Tampa Bay's decision to send him down to the Crunch in order to get some more play time before the summer break.

Dumont will play Sunday's regular season finale against the Sabres despite being place on waivers earlier in the day.

EDGE Analysis

Dumont is slated to slot onto the Lightning's fourth line Sunday with Greg McKegg and the recently-returned J.T. Brown. Dumont has just two points in his last 26 games, so he should not be considered for the final day of the season in all but the deepest of fantasy formats.

Dumont was placed on waivers by the Lightning on Sunday, James Mirtle of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dumont has drawn into all but one of the team's contests since Jan. 12, but appears to be skipping the team's finale. Assuming he clears, the club would likely assign him to the AHL Syracuse affiliate as they pursue a playoff berth.

Dumont (personal) is likely to return to the lineup Thursday night against the Maple Leafs, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dumont and his wife reportedly welcomed their second child into the world Wednesday. The depth center is expected to return, despite missing morning skate.
