Winnipeg Jets centre Pierre-Luc Dubois left Friday's pre-season game against the Calgary Flames with a lower-body injury, the team announced during the first intermission.
No other information about the injury was immediately known. Dubois scored two goals in the first period — in just 5:09 of ice time — before leaving the game.
After the game head coach Rick Bowness said the team is not concerned about Dubois' status and that he was removed from the game as a precaution.
Dubois, 24, is looking to build off a career year last year in which he scored a career-high 28 goals and nearly set a new career-high in points with 60.
Friday's contest was the final pre-season game for the Jets this year. The club will begin the regular season next Friday at home against the New York Rangers.
