Pierre-Luc Dubois Accepts Qualifying Offer

July 22, 2022 at 3:40 pm CDT | by Ethan Hetu 7 Comments

5:10 PM: The Jets have now officially announced the extension.

3:40 PM: With his name featuring heavily in trade rumors, Pierre-Luc Dubois has taken himself one step closer to an exit from Winnipeg. According to TSN’s Darren Dreger, Dubois has chosen to accept his one-year, $6MM qualifying offer in advance of the upcoming deadline.

This means that Dubois has, at least for this summer, elected to not sign a long-term deal with the Jets, as many have expected. Dubois will be an unrestricted free agent in two years’ time. Dubois’ representation has communicated a desire for their client to end up playing for the Montreal Canadiens and Dubois actually attended the draft in Montreal because he believed a trade would be completed on the draft floor. That did not happen, though, so Dubois has now accepted his qualifying offer as a means of simplifying his exit from Winnipeg.

The Jets surrendered two significant players to acquire Dubois: Patrik Laine and Jack Roslovic and did so because they believed a one-two punch at the center position of Dubois and Mark Scheifele would be the key to the next era of contending Jets squads.

That pairing of Dubois and Scheifele doesn’t look like it’ll remain in place for much longer, as the Jets will have to decide if they want to deal Dubois this summer or continue with him on the roster in the hopes that he changes his mind about staying in Winnipeg.

    What happens if Montreal doesn’t want PLD? He’s a very good player but I cannot see him being in the category of player who can pick his definition

    By announcing his desire to go to Montreal his overall trade-ability has plummeted.
    Montreal can lowball the trade and other teams won’t be interested in a guy who quit on two teams now. Chevy might just keep him around for another season.

      These kids are something right? Cant take away being a great plyer from him but all the rest omg. I mean kudos to him if he gets all he wants but kids nowadays think everything must be brought to them on a silver platter

      Yeah, like kids these days think they should get to choose where they live and work! Back in my day you did what you were told, whether by your parents or government or employer and never questioned them or tried to get what was best for you! After all, that is what makes communism successful!

    Dubois is realizing nobody likes a crybaby on the team unless you dominate. 2md line centers should keep there mouth shut

      Fun to watch your act.! Tell those kids to shut up and not have any say about where they live or work.
