Problems Continue For Pierre-Luc Dubois Even on His New Team

Pierre-Luc Dubois has had many issues with many different teams he has played for in the past. He often spoke about not being able to choose where he wanted to play as a factor for his displeasure. This past offseason he finally got a choice of where to go and chose the Los Angeles Kings.

With Dubois finally on a long-term deal and reportedly happy many people expected an improved and more engaged player. Unfortunately for Kings fans that hasn't quite been the case.

When Pierre-Luc Dubois is bought into his team and their mission he is one of the better players in the NHL. Many were hoping and expecting to see this from Dubois this year. Sadly that has been not the case instead more inconsistency in effort and energy has continued.

This opinion is shared by many in the Los Angeles market. Dubois will need to figure it out this time and improve. He has been tied to Los Angeles for several years and cannot slide his way out of it this time.

As pressure mounts from outside sources, it will be interesting to see if Dubois can change his way and play some committed winning hockey.
