Pierre-Luc Dubois Ruled Out Due To Illness For Tuesday's Game

Washington Capitals center Pierre-Luc Dubois is sidelined with an illness and will not travel for Tuesday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes. With Washington facing a back-to-back set, he could potentially return to face Montreal on Wednesday. Through four games this season, Dubois has registered one goal and three assists. In his absence, Ilya Protas is projected to skate on the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin for the upcoming matchup.
