The Washington Capitals placed Pierre-Luc Dubois on injured reserve Saturday afternoon. <\/p>\n

In an accompanying roster move, defenseman Dylan McIlrath was added back to the Capitals\u2019 active roster after successfully rehabbing a lower-body injury suffered on October 4 during the Capitals\u2019 final preseason game<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dubois\u2019s IR designation means he must miss at least seven days retroactive to the date when he was originally hurt \u2014 a lower-body injury suffered on October 12 against the Rangers<\/a>. Dubois is eligible to return for the Capitals\u2019 game against the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday, but Spencer Carbery ruled him out after practice, as the French Canadian centerman skated in a non-contact jersey for the second consecutive day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, it won\u2019t be tomorrow, for sure,\u201d Carbery said<\/a>. \u201cAt some point, he\u2019s going to have to get into a regular jersey, so hopefully, Monday and we\u2019ll see where it goes but too early to tell.\u201d<\/p>\n

PLD\u2019s move to IR completes a busy week of transactions for the Capitals, which saw Vincent Iorio put on waivers<\/a> and claimed by the Vancouver Canucks<\/a>. The Capitals also recalled Ethen Frank from AHL Hershey<\/a> as depth for PLD\u2019s injury.<\/p>\n

With Dubois out, the Capitals moved Connor McMichael from the wing back to center and have had Hendrix Lapierre be the team\u2019s third-line center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\ud83d\udcf8: Alan Dobbins\/RMNB The Washington Capitals placed Pierre-Luc Dubois on injured reserve Saturday afternoon.
