The recent reports regarding Pierre-Luc Dubois and Connor Hellebwick were just a formality.
For anyone interested in the Winnipeg Jets, it’s no surprise that Pierre-Luc Dubois asked to be traded and Connor Hellebuyck has no plans to re-sign with the Jets when his contract expires.
One thing that often comes up when rumors speak of a possible Canadian acquisition of Dubois is that you shouldn’t approach a player who is “having a hard time asking to leave his team”.
Some fans think that Pierre-Luc Dubois is a spoiled brat who wants to choose who he plays with, but is the player really the problem?
Richard Labbe summed up the situation vividly in a recent tweet.
“It’s time to put an end to this story. The Jets players who wanted to leave: Logan Stanley, Jack Roslovic, Jakob Trueba, Evander Kane. Wheeler had to give up his captaincy. The former coach chose to step down. Maybe something is wrong with the Jets as a whole?
Let’s end this narrative now. Jets players who wanted out: Stanley, Roslovic, Trueba, Kane. Wheeler had to drop C.K. The former coach opted to be released on bail. Maybe something is wrong with the planes as a whole?
