It has been a hectic few hours for both clubs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Everyone knows about the saga between Pierre-Luc Dubois and the Columbus Blue Jackets + John Tortorella. The drama went on for an extended period before the\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/2021\/01\/23\/pierre-luc-dubois-patrik-laine-trade\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">trade to Winnipeg<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.

Dubois had to wait two weeks to play because of Canadian quarantine rules. It was long-awaited, but Dubois finally made his Winnipeg debut against the\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/flames\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Calgary Flames<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[pickup_prop id=&#8221;4283&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Flames game was a perfect representation of how the season has gone so far for Pierre-Luc. In short, it was remarkably unproductive. In slightly over 13 minutes of ice time, Dubois did not register a single shot on goal. He only won 33 percent of his faceoffs and managed one hit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dubois, throughout this season, has been just as bad. He has tallied only one point, which was a goal against the\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/redwings\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Detroit Red Wings<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. Additionally, Dubois has a -0.4 goals above replacement and a 0.6 expected goals above replacement per\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/evolving-hockey.com\/?\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Evolving-Hockey<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. He hasn&#8217;t been a very effective player in his very short stint of appearances this season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What Does the Future Look Like for the Jets?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dubois is a 22-year old kid. His ceiling is sky-high, especially on a team where he can play a depth center role. Instead of being thrown to the wolves, he can flourish with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/c\/connoky01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kyle Connor<\/a>, who was on his line Tuesday and Thursday. The Jets are certainly going to miss him while he is out dealing with the injury. Even if he hasn&#8217;t a very effective player this season, any damages, short or long term, to star players in arguably the most critical forward position is going to hurt. The biggest thing for coach Paul Maurice is the use of 11 forwards and seven defencemen. This deployment is a strategy that Maurice has been heavily against, but something he will have to use. How this will work for the Jets is still up in the air, but expect increased ice times for everyone in the lineup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"GiSlIwPYRfpqJ9dmzyybaQ\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1231084568\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'GiSlIwPYRfpqJ9dmzyybaQ',sig:'1qPUzwRVbFRhmk4-u8nFh7K621a1sMG9O8FsKuhAdkc=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1231084568',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The newest member of the\u00a0Winnipeg Jets,\u00a0Pierre-Luc Dubois, is out day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
