Professional[]
On March 23, 2011, the Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League signed Cantin as a free agent to a three-year entry-level contract.[2]
On February 27, 2012, the Bruins traded Cantin (along with Yannick Riendeau) to the New York Islanders in exchange for Brian Rolston and Mike Mottau.[3]
Following the 2013–14 season, the Islanders did not extend a qualifying offer to Cantin. As a result, he became an unrestricted free agent on July 1, 2014.[4] On September 25, 2014, Cantin opted to continue his professional career in the ECHL, in agreeing to a one-year deal with the Utah Grizzlies.[5]
