"Hearing Kings and Caps finalizing a trade involving Pierre-Luc Dubois and Darcy Kuemper"
"PLD for Kuemper. Straight up. No $ retention."
Dubois' full no-move clause was set to kick in on July 1. Even if he could feel that the Kings took advantage of that, he's still excited to join the Capitals, according to Pierre LeBrun:
"Dubois's full no-move was kicking in July 1 so he didn't have to waive but am told he's excited for the trade to Washington"
"P-L Dubois has 7 years remaining on his deal at a cap hit of $8.5M, and is still owed $59.0M in actual salary.
Worth noting that Dubois' had a full no move clause that was set to kick-in on July 1st which would have allowed him blocked this trade."
