In 1997 he was drafted at the OHL Priority Selection in round 12 as the 199th player of the Toronto St. Michael's Majors , for which he never played. He then attended Miami University for four years , for whose ice hockey team he was active in the National Collegiate Athletic Association . In the 2002/03 season , the winger made his debut in professional ice hockey for the Pee Dee Pride from the ECHL , where he ended the season with the Cleveland Barons in the American Hockey League .
From 2003 to 2005 Glumac was on the ice for the Worcester IceCats in the AHL. He then played for three years in parallel for the St. Louis Blues in the National Hockey League and their AHL farm team Peoria Rivermen . In a total of 40 NHL appearances, he scored seven goals and gave six templates. After he was under contract with the Hamilton Bulldogs in the AHL from 2008 to 2010 , the Canadian was signed for the 2010/11 season by the Kassel Huskies from the German Ice Hockey League .

After three seasons in Mannheim, the striker left the German Ice Hockey League and moved to the KHL Medveščak Zagreb club , who played in the Continental Hockey League from the 2013/14 season .
