In 1974, he played for the North Bay Trappers of the Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League and then with the Kitchener Rangers of the Ontario Hockey League, followed by the Hamilton Fincups also of the OHL.
He then joined the World Hockey Association for the 1978/79 season with the Birmingham Bulls.
After the 1978–79 season, the WHA merged with the NHL.
Included in the merger were New England (Hartford), Quebec, Winnipeg, and Edmonton.
Birmingham and Cincinnati were not brought under the auspices of the NHL and subsequently disbanded, and their underage players were all declared eligible for the upcoming draft.

Playing first with the Nova Scotia Voyageurs of the American Hockey League, he joined the Canadiens in the 1979–80 NHL season.

He won the 1986 Stanley Cup with the Montreal Canadiens.
Born and raised in Temiscaming, Quebec, Gingras did not start playing hockey until the age of seven, when he convinced his mother Alva that if his best buddy could play then he would play too, and she got the necessary equipment for both boys.
In the 1987–88 season, he played two games for the Canadiens before moving to the St. Louis Blues for almost two seasons.
Near the end of the 1988–89 season he moved to Switzerland to play for EHC Biel followed by Hockey Club Lugano in the Italian part of Switzerland.
He then moved on to play for HC Gherdëina in Italy before returning to Canada to play for the Fredericton Canadiens where he was a player/coach until he retired.
