Tough news broke for Miami forward commit Maxim Dubé earlier this week. Here’s the report from the official page of the QMJHL’s Gatienau Olympics:
“The Gatineau Olympiques announced Thursday that forward Maxim Dubé will be out of action for an estimated four to five months due to a lower-body injury. The 18-year-old player will undergo surgery in the coming days, which will require an extended period of rehabilitation before a return to play can be considered.”
Dubé was off to an electric start to this season and now faces a setback, projecting him to return around March-April after recovering from surgery. The top line forward leads the team with 12 points (6 goals, 6 assists) through 12 games.
He’s shown elite breakaway speed and can play in all situations.
How this affects his current 2027-28 projection to Miami remains to be seen, but we wish him the best recovery and a speedy one at that.
