  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Needs surgery

    Dubois is having surgery on his abdominal and adductor muscles and will miss the next 3-4 months, the Capitals announced Sunday.

    As reported, it's not a season-ending injury for Dubois, but it is still one that carries a significant recovery time of 3-4 months. The 27-year-old struggled in his six games so far this season, registering no points while averaging 15:32 of ice time per night, but the loss will still certainly be felt given his top-six status. Connor McMichael could center the second line for the foreseeable future.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Avoids season-ending injury

    Dubois (lower body) is not expected to miss the rest of the 2025-26 campaign, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports Tuesday.

    Dubois is expected to miss a significant amount of time, and surgery still hasn't been ruled out, but it seems the team won't put the 27-year-old center on season-ending, long-term injured reserve. Without Dubois in the lineup, it looks like Connor McMichael will get the first shot at filling a top-six role, though Hendrix Lapierre could be an option as well.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Placed on IR

    Dubois (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per the NHL media site.

    Head coach Spencer Carbery said Monday that Dubois would be sidelined for an extended period of time, so it isn't particularly surprising to see the 27-year-old land on injured reserve. It's not yet clear when Dubois will be able to return, and the team's medical staff is still evaluating him to determine whether he'll require surgery.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Set to miss extended time

    Head coach Spencer Carbery said Monday that Dubois (lower body) will be out for an "extended period of time," Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

    Dubois suffered a lower-body injury in the first period of Friday's loss to the Islanders, and he was unavailable for Saturday's matchup against Buffalo. He's still being evaluated as of Monday, and it's not yet clear whether he'll require surgery. However, the Capitals don't expect the 27-year-old to return anytime soon, regardless of whether he undergoes a procedure.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Deemed day-to-day

    Dubois (lower body) is day-to-day and won't play against Buffalo on Saturday, according to Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

    Dubois sustained the injury in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Islanders. He hasn't earned a point in five appearances this season while posting nine shots on goal, six hits and three blocked shots. If Dylan Strome (lower body) isn't ready to return to the lineup, Spencer Smallman will make his NHL debut versus the Sabres on Saturday.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Sustains lower-body injury

    Dubois (lower body) won't return to Friday's game versus the Islanders.

    Dubois suffered an injury when his leg twisted awkwardly after a faceoff late in the first period. The 27-year-old's status beyond Friday has yet to be announced, but this could be a significant injury. If Dubois is out Saturday versus the Sabres, the Capitals would need to make a move unless Dylan Strome (lower body) is able to return to action.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Ready to return

    Dubois (lower body) was taken off injured reserve Saturday.

    Ethen Frank, who played in Washington's last two games, was returned to AHL Hershey in a corresponding move. Dubois missed five straight games due to the injury. Now that he's healthy, the 27-year-old should draw into the lineup Saturday versus Ottawa and serve in a top-six capacity with a power-play role.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Not available Friday

    Dubois (lower body) will be unavailable Friday in Columbus, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

    Dubois is getting close to a return as he is practicing in a regular jersey, but he is not 100 percent and will miss his fifth straight game. Dubois is without a point in three games and could return to the Washington lineup as early as Saturday against Ottawa.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Won't return Tuesday

    Dubois (lower body) will not be ready to return against Seattle on Tuesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

    Dubois was still wearing a non-contact jersey at practice Monday, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him ruled out versus Seattle on Tuesday. At this point, the 27-year-old center should be considered questionable at best heading into Friday's matchup against the Blue Jackets.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Unavailable for Sunday

    Per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post on Saturday, Dubois (lower body) will not play Sunday against the Canucks, but he could return Tuesday against Seattle.

    Dubois was also placed on injured reserve, per the NHL media site, but the move is retroactive to last Sunday's 1-0 win over the Rangers, so he is eligible to be activated ahead of the game against Seattle. He has practiced the last two days in a non-contact jersey, and head coach Spencer Carbery said Saturday that Dubois needs to skate in a regular jersey before Tuesday to give him a chance to face the Kraken. Dubois will miss his third straight game Sunday. He has yet to hit the scoresheet in three appearances this season.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Won't play Friday

    Dubois (lower body) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Wild, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

    Dubois will miss a second consecutive game due to his lower-body injury Friday, but he remains day-to-day. The Capitals indicated before Friday's matchup that Dubois could be in the mix to return for Sunday's game against the Canucks, but even if he's sidelined against Vancouver, it wouldn't be surprising to see him back in game action sometime next week.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Not playing Tuesday

    Dubois is day-to-day with a lower-body injury and won't be available for Tuesday's home game against Tampa Bay, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

    Dubois was injured in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Rangers. Connor McMichael is expected to step into the second-line center role while Dubois is unavailable. The 27-year-old Dubois will have a few days to recover before attempting to suit up for Friday's home contest versus the Wild.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Exits Sunday's game in Manhattan

    Dubois departed Sunday's 1-0 win over the Rangers in the third period due to an undisclosed injury and did not return, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

    Head coach Spencer Carbery said postgame that Dubois is being evaluated. The left-shot center had one hit in 15:32 of ice time prior to exiting the contest. The 27-year-old Dubois should be considered day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's home matchup against Tampa Bay.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Helps out on power play

    Dubois notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Penguins.

    Dubois logged an assist in each of the last two regular-season games. The 26-year-old center posted seven points and a minus-2 rating over the last 15 contests since his most recent multi-point effort. He remains in a second-line role and had a career year with 20 goals, 46 assists, 14 power-play points, 142 shots on net, 65 hits, 62 blocked shots, 76 PIM and a plus-27 rating over 82 appearances.

  • Capitals' Pierre-Luc Dubois: Adds power-play helper

    Dubois produced a power-play assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders.

    Dubois' scoring pace has slowed late in the season -- he's now gone 14 games without a multi-point effort. In that span, he has six points, 22 shots on net, 11 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-3 rating. Dubois has still put together a career year in his first season with the Capitals, earning 20 goals, 45 assists, 142 shots on net, 65 hits, 61 blocked shots, 76 PIM and a plus-26 rating over 81 appearances. If he plays in the regular-season finale Thursday versus the Penguins, he will end up playing a full 82-game season for the fourth time in his career.
