In an article published by "The Athletic" just moments ago, journalists Arpon Basu and Marc Antoine Godin have revealed major information regarding Pierre-Luc Dubois.

As rumors have seriously intensified in the last few hours, and it seems Dubois will apparently be traded within about twenty days, we've just learned that the Canadiens have contacted the Jets about this. Yes, already!

Kent Hughes quickly contacted the Jets!

Here's what Godin and Basu have learned about the process that will unfold in the coming days.

«The Dubois camp will provide a list of teams with which the forward would be interested in signing a long-term deal.

We're talking about maybe five or six teams. Obviously, Brisson will have to assess these organizations' willingness to integrate Dubois and his new contract before adding them to the list.

The Canadiens, who contacted the Jets as soon as they were eliminated, will be on it.» - The Athletic

Things are going to get interesting in the coming days, and we'll be watching closely.

Dubois is going to sign an eight-year contract

However, it's no longer the case that Dubois will be available for free in a year. He is going to sign an eight-year contract with the team he is traded to in the coming days.

It's expected to be similar to Matthew Tkachuk's trade:

«By proceeding with a 'sign and trade' to which the Jets would put their signature, Dubois would be able to get an eight-year deal with his new team.» - The Athletic

There lies the major development and change.
