Blue Jackets sign CHL and QMJHL leader in points to entry-level contract

The Columbus Blue Jackets announced on Friday that they've agreed to terms on a three-year, entry-level contract with 2022 third-round pick Jordan Dumais.

After a very strong draft year where he put up 109 points in 68 games, Dumais is off to a flying start to this season. The 18-year-old currently leads, not only the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, but the entire Canadian Hockey League in points with 49 (19 goals, 30 assists) in 22 games for the Halifax Mooseheads.

The Ile Bizard native's strong start to the 2022-23 season may earn himself an invite to Canada's World Junior Camp, which is set to get underway in roughly two weeks from today.

Nice day for a Jordan Dumais signing
