Career

Jason Pominville in the Buffalo Sabers training kit .

Pominville began his career with the Shawinigan Cataractes in the Ligue de hockey junior majeur du Québec . There the attacker, who was playing in the second attacking formation of the Cataractes at the time, drew attention to himself in his third season when he scored 46 goals in 71 games and prepared another 67. During the NHL Entry Draft 2001 he was selected by the Buffalo Sabers in the second round in 55th place, because his offensive strength and his eye for the next man convinced the responsible from Buffalo. This season was also crowned with an invitation to the training camp for the Junior World Championship in 2002, but he did not make it into the squad.

After the draft, his junior team stayed another season and confirmed his previous year's performance before Pominville was called to the Rochester Americans squad a season later . In his first professional season with the Sabers farm team in the American Hockey League , he scored 34 points and achieved a record of 16 penalty minutes. In the following season, the striker made his breakthrough in the professional field by not only making his debut in the NHL, but also scoring 64 points in 66 games of the season and another 19 points in 16 play-off games. Due to the lockout, another year followed in Rochester, where he again improved the previous year's performance.

In the 2005/06 season he became an integral part of the Sabers squad and scored 18 goals in 12 assists in 57 games, after he was still in the Amerks squad at the beginning of the season. In the play-offs for the Stanley Cup Pominville managed his first NHL hat trick in the second game of the first round against the Philadelphia Flyers . In the further course of the play-offs he scored in game five of the series against the Ottawa Senators the game and series decisive goal in the minority in overtime. This was the first play-off round in the long history of the NHL to be decided by a goal outnumbered in extra time.

Due to the NHL lockout , he was active in 2012 for Adler Mannheim from the German ice hockey league . At the trade deadline on April 3, 2013, he was transferred to the Minnesota Wild .

After four years with the Wild, Pominville returned to Buffalo in June 2017 when he was handed over to the Sabers along with Marco Scandella and a four-round vote in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft . In return, Tyler Ennis , Marcus Foligno and a third-round vote for the same draft moved to Minnesota. In November 2018, Pominville completed his 1,000th regular season game in the NHL.

In the summer of 2019, his expiring contract in Buffalo was not extended, so he has been looking for a new employer since July 2019.
