  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Bags helper in debut

    Dubois tallied a power-play assist, two shots and a minus-1 rating during Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Devils.

    Dubois notched his first point as a Capital on Washington's opening goal. Traded twice in as many seasons, Dubois knows the pressure is on to show he can still be a difference-maker at the NHL level and the Capitals are bound to be pleased with the blend of speed and skill he showed in Saturday's loss. The 26-year-old could be worthy of a pickup for risk-tolerant fantasy managers.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Moving to Washington

    Dubois was acquired by the Capitals from the Kings on Wednesday in exchange for Darcy Kuemper.

    The Kings made a big bet on Dubois in the summer of 2023, trading Alex Iafallo, Gabriel Vilardi, Rasmus Kupari and a 2024 second-round pick to get him from the Jets. The move also involved signing Dubois to an eight-year, $68 million contract. The idea was that the center, who provides a strong blend of grit and skill, would make the Kings deep up the middle in the short term and perhaps even be the eventual successor to Anze Kopitar. However, Dubois went from recording at least 60 points in each of his previous two campaigns to finishing with 16 goals and 40 points across 82 regular-season contests in 2023-24. Averaging 15:42 of ice time this season, down from 18:27 in 2022-23, probably didn't help his offensive production, so perhaps the move to Washington will do him some good. Nicklas Backstrom (hip) isn't expected to play at all next season, which leaves the door open for Dubois to possibly serve as the Capitals' top-line center.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Nets goal in Game 1 loss

    Dubois scored a goal on three shots, added four PIM and dished out five hits in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 1.

    Dubois' goal late in the third period was little more than window dressing in the high-scoring loss. The 25-year-old had five points over the last nine games of the regular season, finishing the campaign at 40 points in 82 appearances. He's still in a bottom-six role in the playoffs, and he'll likely stay there as long as both Anze Kopitar and Phillip Danault are healthy.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Tallies on power play

    Dubois scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Ducks.

    Dubois got the promotion to the top line since Anze Kopitar (undisclosed) did not play. The goal was Dubois' first since March 15, though he managed nine assists in the 13 contests between goals. The 25-year-old center is up to 16 tallies, 40 points, 146 shots on net, 95 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 80 appearances. He's significantly down from his 63 points in 2022-23, but it hasn't helped that the Kings forward spent the vast majority of the campaign on the third line.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Plucks apple in win

    Dubois notched an assist in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Sharks.

    Dubois has four helpers over his last two contests and nine assists over 10 games since his last goal. The 25-year-old center continues to fill in on the second line while Phillip Danault (upper body) is on the mend. Dubois has 39 points, 138 shots on net, 95 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 76 appearances this season, primarily in a third-line role.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Distributes three helpers in win

    Dubois notched three assists and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Kraken.

    Dubois helped out on all three goals of Trevor Moore's hat trick. After a three-game dry spell, it's a positive to see Dubois check in on offense, especially with Phillip Danault (upper body) out of the lineup. Dubois has eight helpers over nine games since his last goal, and the 25-year-old is at 38 points, 137 shots on net, 95 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 75 appearances this season.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Picks up assist in win

    Dubois notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.

    Dubois remains warm -- he has a goal and six helpers over his last six contests while adding a plus-6 rating in that span. The 25-year-old set up Kevin Fiala's opening goal in the first period. Dubois is up to 35 points (15 goals, 20 helpers) through 71 contests, and he's tacked on 131 shots, 91 hits and 70 PIM. A strong finish to the year would help to partially salvage his otherwise unimpressive first campaign with the Kings.

The center is up to 34 points, 129 shots on net, 90 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-13 rating through 70 contests overall, putting him on track for the worst full-length campaign of his career.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Provides two assists in win

    Dubois notched two assists and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Dubois has racked up five points over his last three games as he's found a groove late in the season. He helped out on the Kings' first and last goal in this game. The 25-year-old center is up to 33 points, 127 shots on net, 88 hits, 54 PIM and a minus-14 rating through 68 appearances. While he's put up better results lately, he remains on the Kings' third line.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: One of each in 500th career game

    Dubois scored a power-play goal on three shots, dished an assist, logged two hits, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Friday's 5-0 win over the Blackhawks.

    Dubois opened the scoring 3:10 into the game and helped out on an Alex Laferriere goal just a couple of minutes later. This was Dubois' first multi-point effort since Feb. 20 -- he had just two points over the 11 contests in between. He reached the 30-point mark Friday, but this is on track to be the 25-year-old's worst full-length season as it took him 66 contests to get there. Friday also marked his 500th career NHL game.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Deposits goal Thursday

    Dubois scored a goal on three shots and added three hits in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Senators.

    Dubois snapped a seven-game goal drought with his third-period marker. During that slump, he managed just one assist. The 25-year-old center has 14 goals, 28 points, 115 shots on net, 76 hits, 46 PIM and a minus-18 rating through 62 appearances. He's played much of the season as the third-line center, though he hasn't been much better on the rare occasions he's gotten a top-six winger spot.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Scores twice in win

    Dubois scored a pair of goals, including one on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

    This was Dubois' second multi-goal game of the campaign. The 25-year-old center has had a rough first year with the Kings, but he's got six points over six outings in February, which suggests he could be turning a corner. He's up to 13 goals, 26 points, 101 shots on net, 61 hits, 46 PIM and a minus-14 rating through 54 outings overall. Dubois remains on the third line, though the Kings have decent depth, so it'll be up to him to keep getting involved in the scoring.

  • Kings' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Two helpers in Boston

    Dubois picked up two assists while adding four shots on net, five hits, two PIM and a blocked shot during Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Bruins.

    The 25-year-old center sparked a rally from a 3-1 deficit by having a hand in tallies by Vladislav Gavrikov late in the second period and Alex Laferriere early in the third, setting the stage for a wild finish. It was Dubois' first multi-point performance since Jan. 15, snapping a slump that had seen him manage just two goals and three points over his prior 11 contests. On the season, Dubois has only 24 points (11 goals, 13 assists) in 52 games with a minus-16 rating, a disappointing showing in his first campaign with the Kings.
