Elliotte Friedman revealed important information regarding the Pierre-Luc Dubois case. Indeed, according to the journalist, Kevin Cheveldayoff would want none other than Kirby Dach in return for the Quebecer.
It would be very surprising if Kent Hughes agreed to give up the center player, who seems untouchable with the Canadiens. The 22-year-old forward had a real breakthrough this season and was one of the most consistent players in Martin St. Louis' lineup, scoring 38 points in 58 games.
However, Pierre-Luc Dubois himself mentioned during the end-of-season review that it was very important for him to have the opportunity to decide with which team he would play when he becomes a free agent. A statement that seems to favor the Habs, who have mentioned on numerous occasions that he would like to wear the Blue-White-Red uniform.
Knowing the Jets' monstrous demands, Kent Hughes would be better off waiting for the 24-year-old forward to become a free agent next summer to try to acquire him for free. After all, if Dubois really wants to play for the CH, he shouldn't sign a long-term deal with another team.
