Lamothe signed with the Edmonton Oilers in 2001-02 after a year of service with Columbus. Lamothe was unable to make a strong showing at training camp so the Oilers decided to send Jussi Markkanen as Tommy Salo’s backup. Lamothe will now play for the Hamilton Bulldogs in the AHL.

At the end of the season, economic woes befell the NHL and ultimately lead to the 2004–05 NHL lockout. Despite his success at the AHL level, Lamothe never caught on as a NHL goaltender before the lockout. However, Lamothe was generating interest from Russian Super League, which offered both a higher level of competition and a higher salary than the AHL could offer. On 14 June 2004, Lamothe moved overseas and signed with the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl. He appeared in 54 contests for them that season.

On 22 July 2005, Lamothe signed with the Severstal Cherepovets. He would appear in 83 contests with them over 2 seasons, in addition to 8 playoff games during that same timeframe. With Severstal Lamothe won LenVO cup in August

Lamothe started his Junior hockey career playing with the Kingston Frontenacs. He was then drafted by the National Hockey League’s Montreal Canadiens at 92nd overall in the 1992 NHL Entry Draft. The Canadiens sent Lamothe to the Wheeling Thunderbirds in the ECHL for the bulk of his rookie season after he became a professional hockey player in 1994-95. Lamothe played in nine contests that year for the Fredericton Canadiens. Montreal offered Lamothe a place on their AHL team during the 1995-96 season. He did not see any action, except for 23 games. He was clearly not going to be part of the Canadiens’ plans by season’s end and was released to free agency.

Lamothe was signed to a contract by the Chicago Blackhawks on 21 August 1996. Lamothe spent three more seasons with Chicago’s best minor league affiliate, Indianapolis Ice of IHL. Lamothe practiced his skills in Indianapolis while awaiting his call up to the NHL. Lamothe moved to Cleveland in 1999-2000 to play for the Lumberjacks. However, Chicago retained his rights. Lamothe was called by the Blackhawks to play for Jocelyn Thibault, who needed him as an injury replacement for Steve Passmore.

The Detroit Red Wings signed Lamothe on 6 August 2002 to a one-year contract. Upon his arrival with the organization, he was assigned to the club’s AHL affiliate, the Grand Rapids Griffins, to act as a mentor for the developing goaltender Joey MacDonald. Lamothe had a strong season in the AHL that year, winning the Aldege “Baz” Bastien Memorial Award for being the AHL’s best goaltender and sharing the Harry “Hap” Holmes Memorial Award with MacDonald for combining to have the lowest Goals against average in the AHL. His efforts did not go unnoticed by the Red Wings organization. On 1 July 2003, the first day of NHL free agency, Lamothe was re-signed to another year-long contract with the Red Wings. He would again begin the season assigned to the Griffins with MacDonald. However, as the season progressed, Dominik Hašek left the team due to injury while Curtis Joseph would become injured as well, leaving the Red Wings to call up Lamothe to support Manny Legace. While he was never needed to relieve Legace, Lamothe would start against his former club, the Edmonton Oilers, on 23 February 2004, skating to a 1–1 tie. The next morning, newspaper articles were printed in Canada documenting Lamothe’s story, where he spent 10 years almost exclusively in the minors before starting in net for one of hockey’s most popular and successful teams. Lamothe would get one more start before the season was over, making 26 saves for a 3–2 victory over the St. Louis Blues.
