Dubois taken off IR, shifts positions ahead of Sunday's game
Winnipeg Jets forward Pierre-Luc Dubois has been taken off injured reserve and will return to the line-up on Sunday night against the Vancouver Canucks.
"I'm ready to go again." Dubois said this afternoon in a zoom call with the media. He added that he'll move to the wing, playing on the Jets first line with Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler.
The 22-year old was brought in the be the Jets second line center, which would have forced Paul Stastny to the wing, but it appears head coach Paul Maurice is wanting to shake things up, and put some new fire power with Scheifele and Wheeler.
Dubois was acquired from Columbus in late January for Patrik Laine and Jack Roslovic. In 5 games this season with the Blue Jackets and Jets, Dubois has 1 point (1 G), 4 penalty minutes, and is a -2.
