Pierre-Luc Dubois, a projected lottery pick at this summer's draft, has been suspended by the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League until further notice for an ugly hit thrown Saturday night.

At top speed in pursuit on the forecheck, the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles forward placed his hands on the back of Luke Green, and shoved the Saint Johns Sea Dogs defenseman into the boards from several feet out.

Dubois has shot up draft boards this season, with 42 goals and 99 points in 62 games. And he also has clear edge, tallying the 11th-most penalty minutes among QMJHL skaters.
