Lewis, who is Jewish,[1] was born in Pittsburgh. He attended Upper St. Clair High School.[2] Upon the completion of his professional playing career in 2016, Lewis set his sights on pursuing a professional career in dentistry. He is currently on track to receive a DDS degree.
Lewis was drafted 40th overall in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft by the Atlanta Thrashers. He played collegiate hockey with Dartmouth College of the ECAC. During his freshman season he had 25 points, including 3 goals, in 34 games.[3] His 25 points was the second-highest for a freshman in the history of the college.[4] In four seasons he played in 120 games, and had 13 goals and 64 assists for 77 points.[3]

In the 2008–09 season, Lewis was recalled by the Thrashers on March 2, 2009.[6] He made his NHL debut for the Thrashers on March 3, 2009, in a 4–3 loss against the Florida Panthers.[7]
Grant played in 26 games with the Wolves in the 2009–10 season, before he was reassigned, by the Thrashers, to the Hershey Bears on March 10, 2010.[8] Used as a depth defenseman, Grant played in one playoff game with the Bears as they successfully defended the Calder Cup.
On September 1, 2010, Grant was traded prior to the 2010–11 season by the Thrashers to the Nashville Predators for Ian McKenzie.[9]
After the 2010–11 season with the Milwaukee Admirals, Grant left for Europe and experienced a one-year tenure in the Russian Kontinental Hockey League with Lev Poprad.
