1 week agoPierrick Dube scores first career KHL goal in Traktor Chelyabinsk debut
The 24-year-old former Washington Capitals winger scored Traktor's lone goal in their season-opening matchup with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl on Friday. With Traktor on a third-period power play down 1-0, Dubé pumped home a power-play one-time blast from Alex Ovechkin's office. Fellow former NHL talent Mikhail Grigorenko and Joshua Leivo provided the assists. Dubé skated on the team's second line with captain Alexander Kadeikin and Yegor Korshkov. He received 16:59 of total ice time in the eventual 2-1 shootout loss and also took a two-minute minor penalty for roughing.
