Pierre-Luc Dubois's Player Profile
Craig Button TSN - March 22, 2016 - "Pierre-Luc Dubois of the QMJHL’s Cape Breton Screaming Eagles is a player who has pushed himself into the conversation with Laine and Puljujarvi, jumping from tenth spot on the January list to fourth here. He has elite skill, with power and intelligence. Dubois has the ability to play a multi-faceted game balancing all of the essential elements, and is equally adept finishing a play or setting one up. There is so much in his game that reminds me of Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn, including the versatility to play centre. All of these elements put him in the discussion with the Finnish players."Ryan Kennedy of The Hockey News - March 8, 2016 - "Scouts love his combination of size, smarts, edge and competitiveness and with 10 points in his past three games, he is nowhere close to slowing down. Simply put, he’s the most exciting Quebec product since Jonathan Drouin and may have more pro potential thanks to his two-way game.
Dubois himself is impossible to ignore. While he is still working on his explosiveness, he has already grown three inches and 35 pounds since Cape Breton drafted him and in the summer, he trains with Tampa Bay strength and conditioning coach Mark Lambert outside Montreal. "
Damien Cox of Sportsnet - January 13, 2016 - "Really starting to put up some numbers for the Screaming Eagles and has a very complete 200-foot game."
Curtis Joe of Elite Prospects - 2016 - A dexterous and driven competitor that has all the makings of a dynamic two-way winger. Not the most electric skater, but is shifty and plays to the extent of his physical capabilities; he knows his limits and plays within them, which facilitates a student-like approach to the growth of his game. Possesses high hockey-IQ and is consistent in his efforts. Not the most physical player, but is when he needs to be. All-in-all, Dubois is an invaluable all-around player who plays in all situations and exceeds expectations when the opportunity arises. - See more at: http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=252480#sthash.ZaoBztLx.dpuf
Future Considerations - November 2015 - "Dubois is a coaches dream; a big, rangy forward who can succeed in any role asked of him. He is a strong forchecker and defensibly responsible player who plays the entire ice sheet, not just offense. He is hard to contain when he goes on the offensive attack due to his strength, skating ability and puck protection. He is also that guy who hunts down the puck with dogged determination when he loses it. Like to play in traffic and goes to the net. Has a strong shot and can set-up his teammates with well-timed passes. A complete all-round prospect with very high upside."
