Pierre-Luc Dubois Rejoins Capitals Lineup Saturday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (illness) will return to action on Saturday against Buffalo, ending a five-game absence. He is finally ready to return after missing a couple of weeks due to illness. Washington will also welcome back Justin Sourdif (illness) after a two-game absence, giving the team a nice boost at center. Before he caught an illness, Dubois was off to a productive start to the season. The 28-year-old has amassed four points (one goal, three assists) in four games. Dubois has an impressive career record against the Sabres, with eight goals and 13 assists in 20 career games.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Could Return Saturday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (illness) could be an option for Saturday's meeting with Buffalo, The Athletic's Tarik El-Bashir reports. Due to illness, Dubois was unavailable for a fifth consecutive game on Tuesday against L.A. Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery said Wednesday morning that Dubois is "potentially" going to return Saturday. Dubois was one of Washington's sharpest players in the first few games, posting one goal and three assists in four appearances. He'll be a welcome addition to the top six and a power play that has lagged so far.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Remains Unavailable Saturday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (illness) will be absent for a fourth straight game on Saturday against New Jersey. He's having trouble recovering from illness. Dubois' absence has left the Capitals without a player who averaged a point per game across the first four contests of the year. On Saturday, Washington could also be without Justin Sourdif (illness), forcing head coach Spencer Carbery to make further changes up front. In this situation, Ethen Frank could earn a regular spot in the lineup. So far, he's appeared in only two games this season.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Still Out Wednesday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (illness) will miss a third straight game on Wednesday against Montreal. He still hasn't fully recovered from an illness that knocked Dubois out of the lineup last weekend. Dylan Strome and Boone Jenner have seen their workload increase over the past couple of games without Dubois. Both players have significant fantasy appeal. Jenner is on a three-game goal streak heading into Wednesday's contest, while Strome is Washington's leading playmaker. He has recorded five assists in six games this season.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Unavailable Tuesday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (illness) isn't traveling for Tuesday's matchup with the Carolina Hurricanes, Sammy Silber of The Hockey News reports. He was a late scratch for Saturday's game against Seattle due to illness, and Dubois still seems to be feeling the effects of the bug and isn't ready to play. The Capitals return home on Wednesday to face Montreal, which will be Dubois' next chance to make his comeback. With Dubois out, Ethen Frank made his season debut on Saturday, but he has no fantasy value. Ilya Protas is expected to fill first-line center duties against Carolina, giving him more fantasy appeal.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Won't Play Sunday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's tilt against the Seattle Kraken. On Sunday morning, he was labeled a game-time decision due to illness. Dubois' absence will be a major blow to Seattle's offense, as he has averaged a point per game in four outings this season. The 28-year-old has one goal and three assists. Dylan Strome, Ilya Protas, and Justin Sourdif will be expected to put in more work in the middle without Dubois.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Ready for Training Camp

Washington Capitals center Pierre-Luc Dubois (hand) is healthy and appears to be at 100 percent ahead of training camp, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. Dubois broke his hand late last season. Due to health issues, the 28-year-old's campaign was frustrating all around, as Dubois appeared in only 29 games. He notched five goals and 14 assists. Across the previous two seasons, Dubois hadn't missed a single game, so hopefully the injury troubles are behind him. Only a year removed from a career year, Dubois remains a name for fantasy managers to watch.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Dealing With Fractured Hand

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois fractured his hand in Sunday's win over Pittsburgh, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports reports. He didn't play on Tuesday against Columbus and is expected to need 1-2 months to heal up. The playoff door was shut for Washington, so Dubois will have the entire summer to rehab from the injury. Dubois battled health issues all season and made only 29 appearances. He tallied five goals and 19 points. His production dropped significantly compared with his first season with the Capitals, when Dubois recorded a career-high 66 points (20 goals, 46 assists) in 82 games.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Sustains Upper-Body Injury Saturday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (upper body) is questionable for Sunday's tilt against the Pittsburgh Penguins after getting hurt on Saturday. The Capitals beat a weakened Penguins squad 6-3 on the road, with Dubois contributing one assist. But he logged just 7:02 of ice time, leaving the contest due to an upper-body injury. Health issues have limited Dubois to only 28 appearances this season. He has logged five goals and 13 assists. David Kampf could be Dubois' replacement in the lineup for Sunday's rematch with the Penguins, but he doesn't hold any fantasy value.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Scores Twice in Victory

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois lit the lamp twice in Friday night's 3-2 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights. Playing in just his ninth game of the season, Pierre scored twice early in the second period, with Aleksei Protas and Rasmus Sandin getting credited with the assists. He has three goals and two assists this year, but last year he had 20 goals and 66 points when he ended up playing the full 82-game slate. The Capitals are back in action on Saturday night versus the Canadiens.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Available Against Predators

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (abdomen) will return to action on Thursday night against the Nashville Predators. He has been out of commission since Oct. 31, missing 47 games due to abdominal and adductor muscle surgery. Before landing on the shelf, Dubois had a slow start to the season, going scoreless in six games. He is set to center the second line and the second power-play unit on Thursday. Sonny Milano (personal) will come out of the lineup. Dubois may have struggled early this season, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on him, as he set a career high with 66 points only a year ago.

Pierre-Luc Dubois to Miss 3-4 Months

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois will miss 3-4 months after he had surgery to address injuries to his abdominal and adductor muscles, the team announced Sunday. Dubois missed a fourth straight game on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning and was placed on Injured Reserve earlier this week. It's possible he won't return to action before March. Before being sidelined, Dubois made six appearances but didn't record any points. Dubois' absence has increased the fantasy value of Connor McMichael, who has taken over second-line center duties. However, McMichael has produced only one goal and three assists in 15 outings this season.

Pierre-Luc Dubois to Miss "Extended Period of Time"

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) is facing a lengthy absence. On Monday, Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery told reporters that Dubois is going to miss "an extended period of time." The 27-year-old was initially labeled as day-to-day after he suffered a lower-body injury in Friday's loss to the New York Islanders. Dubois also missed time earlier in the season and has appeared in only six games. Despite being a top-six piece and a regular on the power play, Dubois has yet to register any points. Going forward, Connor McMichael is expected to operate as the second-line center, but he's also been largely ineffective this season, picking up only four points (one goal, three assists) in 12 games.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Sustains Lower-Body Injury Friday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) didn't finish Friday's 3-1 loss to the New York Islanders. He suffered a lower-body injury in the first period, which has left Washington without its top two centers. Dylan Strome (lower body) sat out a second consecutive game on Friday night. Dubois has already missed time this season because of a lower-body ailment, making only six appearances. He has yet to register any points during a frustrating campaign. While Strome could be an option to return on Saturday against the Buffalo Sabres, Dubois' status is very much up in the air.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Available Saturday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) has been activated from Injured Reserve and is poised to return to the lineup for Saturday's tilt against the Ottawa Senators. Due to a lower-body injury, Dubois has been forced to skip five games. The 27-year-old has not yet registered any points in three outings this season. He will likely return to the second line, bumping Connor McMichael or Hendrix Lapierre down to the third. Washington will also use Dubois on the power play. With Dubois available, the team has reassigned Ethen Frank to the minors.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Misses Fifth Straight Game Friday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) will remain out on Friday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Although Dubois has returned to practice, he will miss a fifth consecutive game due to a lower-body injury. Reports indicate that Dubois is getting closer to returning, so there is a possibility he may be good to go on Saturday against the Ottawa Senators. In Dubois' absence, Connor McMichael has received an opportunity in the top six, but he's been a disappointment in fantasy hockey this season. In seven appearances, McMichael has registered just one assist and is yet to score, despite putting 18 shots on the net.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Remains Sidelined Tuesday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) will miss a fourth consecutive game on Tuesday against the Seattle Kraken, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports. Dubois continued to practice in a non-contact jersey on Monday. Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery is hopeful that Dobois can fully participate in Thursday's practice, which would pave the way for him to re-enter the lineup on Friday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Before exiting the lineup, Dubois had three scoreless games to kick off his campaign. Connor McMichael has seen increased usage during Dubois' absence, but he's been off form this season, failing to score with 16 shots on goal and recording only one assist in six outings.

Pierre-Luc Dubois to Remain Out Sunday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) will miss a third consecutive game on Sunday against the Vancouver Canucks. Dubois practiced on Saturday in a non-contact jersey. The 27-year-old appears to be making progress, so his comeback should be near. Following Saturday's practice, Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery labeled Dubois as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Seattle Kraken. The Capitals are expected to continue using Connor McMichael on the second line in Dubois' absence on Sunday. McMichael has not been a good fantasy option this season, recording only one assist with 10 shots in five games.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Out Against Wild

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) will miss a second straight game on Friday against the Minnesota Wild. Dubois participated in the morning skate, but he wore a non-contact jersey and remains day-to-day. According to Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery, Dubois will most likely return to action sometime next week. Before getting knocked out of the lineup by a lower-body injury, Dubois went scoreless in three appearances. Connor McMichael has taken over as the second-line center and posted his first point of the season via an assist during Tuesday's 3-2 overtime victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Out on Tuesday

Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) will miss Tuesday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Dubois was injured in Sunday's 1-0 win over the New York Rangers and remains day-to-day. Washington is expected to use Connor McMichael as Dubois' replacement in the second-line center role. Meanwhile, Hendrix Lapierre will re-enter the lineup on the third line after sitting as a healthy scratch on Sunday. Joining the top six boosts McMichael's fantasy appeal and may help him get going after a sluggish start to the campaign. The 24-year-old hasn't scored any points in the first three games.
