There is a new significant development in the upcoming transaction of Pierre-Luc Dubois to the Los Angeles Kings.

According to the latest circulating information, two other names would be involved in the trade.

Here's the first one who would be heading to Los Angeles along with Dubois:

"Expect Jansen Harkins to be traded to Los Angeles if the Kings and the Jets confirm the Pierre-Luc Dubois trade." - Via Ken Wiebe

And a bit later, we learned that a very big name would be added to Gabriel Vilardi and Alex Iafallo to join the Jets.

"The acquisition of Pierre-Luc Dubois by the Los Angeles Kings would absolutely mean that Quinton Byfield will be part of the package received by the Jets." - Eric Stephens

Indeed, the second overall choice in the 2020 NHL Draft, just behind a certain Alexis Lafrenière, would join this monster offer from the Kings to acquire the 25-year-old forward.

For the moment, nothing is confirmed, as the transaction seems to be stagnating due to the contract extension that would conclude everything.

So, according to the information collected, the picture of this exchange would look like this:

"In Winnipeg: Gabe Vilardi + Quinton Byfield + Alex Iafallo

In Los Angeles: Pierre-Luc Dubois and Jansen Harkins."

More details will follow.
