Career

Danault was captain of his teams in Novice A, Atom BB, Peewee AA, and Bantam AA while playing minor and bantam hockey with Hockey Bois-Francs in Victoriaville. Additionally, he played for the Victoriaville Tigres minor ice hockey team in the 2005 and 2006 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournaments. Danault scored 27 points with the Trois-Rivières Estacades in the 2008–09 season, helping the team earn a spot in the Jimmy-Ferrari Cup.

Danault scored 15 points in 19 games during the tournament, but the Estacades lost to the Rousseau-Royal de Laval-Montréal in the Finals. Danault’s hometown Victoriaville Tigres selected him ninth overall in the QMJHL draft at the end of the season.

During the 2010–11 season, Danault achieved new heights in his career and received recognition from the QMJHL. He won Player of the Game in the 2010 SUBWAY Super Series against Russia and was chosen to play for Team Cherry in the 2011 CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game. On the NHL Central Scouting Bureau’s midterm ranking list for the upcoming National Hockey League (NHL) entry draft, Danault was placed 23rd among skaters in North America in January.

After Philip-Michael Devos left the Tigres, he was also named captain. With 23 goals and 44 assists in 64 games, Danault was named the QMJHL’s finest defensive forward and was awarded the Guy Carbonneau Trophy.

In return for Gabriel Gagné, two first-round draft picks in 2014 and 2015, a second-round pick in 2015, and a first-round Euro pick in 2014, Danault was moved to the Moncton Wildcats on January 8, 2013. Danault was put on the team’s top line right away, alongside Ivan Barbashev and Dmitrij Jaškin. Together, the three scored 22 goals in their first eight games. Danault was transferred to the Rockford IceHogs for the rest of the 2013 season following the Wildcats’ elimination from the playoffs.

Danault was transferred to the Rockford IceHogs for the 2013–14 season after participating in the Blackhawks’ 2013 training camp. Danault scored six goals and provided 20 assists in his debut season while frequently playing on the IceHogs third line.

Danault scored three goals in his first two games at the 2014 Rookie Tournament in London, Ontario. After that, he played on a line alongside Ryan Hartman and Dennis Rasmussen during the Blackhawks’ 2014 training camp. Danault was sent to the IceHogs to begin the 2014–15 season after participating in a few preseason games.

During the 2015 offseason, Danault had surgery to fix his left hip, and it was anticipated that he would need four months to recuperate. But he recovered more quickly than anticipated, and in December he was back in the IceHogs lineup. Danault was called up to the NHL after playing in six games with the IceHogs. On December 20, he assisted on Andrew Shaw’s goal in a 4-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks to record his first NHL point. A few weeks later, on January 8, 2016, in a 3-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres, he scored his first NHL goal.

On February 26, 2016, Danault was dealt to the Montreal Canadiens (along with Chicago’s second-round pick in the 2018 NHL entry draft) for forwards Dale Weise and Tomě Fleischmann after scoring five points in 30 games. Danault made 21 appearances for the Canadiens, contributing two assists and three goals. Danault signed a two-year contract extension worth an average of $912,500 on July 5, 2016.

On July 28, 2021, Danault signed a six-year, $33 million contract with the Los Angeles Kings after becoming an unrestricted free agent. With a career-high 27 goals at the end of the 2021–22 season, Danault helped them secure a postseason berth for the first time since 2018. In the opening round of the 2022 Stanley Cup playoffs, the Kings took on the Edmonton Oilers. Danault led the Kings to a 4-3 victory over the Oilers in Game 1 by scoring the game-winning goal late in the third period. Danault prevented an injury and helped the Oilers advance to Game 7 despite being head-butted by Oilers defenceman Darnell Nurse in Game 6, who was later suspended.

Danault was dealt by the Kings to the Canadiens on December 19, 2025, for a second-round pick in 2026.
