Bombshell announcement regarding Pierre-Luc Dubois and his agent
The matter has been the talk of the town for quite some time, but it appears we will see a resolution soon.
Pierre-Luc Dubois has officially informed the Winnipeg Jets that he will not be signing a contract with them, not even a one-season contract.
His days there are numbered.
This is significant and it's now only a matter of time before he's traded, as the Jets know very well they'll lose him "for nothing" in a year.
This obviously decreases Dubois' value on the trade market, and it's Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens who could benefit.
"We understand that Pat Brisson (Dubois' agent) has informed the Winnipeg Jets that his client will not be signing a contract extension this summer, not even for a year. Pat Brisson would like to work with the Jets on a trade to send Dubois to another team."

IT'S HAPPENING!
A trade involving Dubois, probably at the draft, is more likely than ever.
He has just officially informed the Jets that he won't be signing with them, and the rumors of the past few months are being confirmed.
Now it remains to be seen where he will be traded, and of course the Montreal Canadiens will be at the forefront of the race to acquire him.
Details to follow.
The 'Dubois Watch is officially underway!
