The Athletic: Kings GM Jason Blake on Dubois.

“Pierre-Luc Dubois is an elite two-way center with a unique skillset, and we’re excited to have him join the organization and commit to us long-term. Over the last few seasons, he has proven the ability to contribute to all facets of the game and we are thrilled to be able to add a player of this caliber into our lineup.”

Thoughts from the media

Mike McIntyre: “I know some want to dump on Pierre-Luc Dubois, but give him credit. Had he not expanded his horizons and truly had a “Montreal or bust” mindset, the #NHLJets were backed into a big corner. Little to no leverage in a trade. Instead, they get a tidy haul from Los Angeles.”

Austin Stanovich: “The Kings front office must really like Dubois. And feel that Kupari’s offense isn’t going to arrive.”

Murat Ates: Jansen Harkins was not part of the trade. Previous speculation suggested he might be but I’m told that Harkins was not discussed.

Cap Friendly: “To acquire Toffoli only 16 months ago, #Flames traded:

2022 1st round pick
2023 5th round pick
Tyler Pitlick
Emil Heineman”

  • Dobber Sports: “Not only that, but he actually exceeds expectations (sets career highs), and rather than turn a profit on him they take a loss. A weird trade that just seems rushed.”
