Ryan Leonard and Pierre-Luc Dubois are two NHL talents sharing an apartment as roommates, a setup that has proved both entertaining and beneficial for their careers. With Dubois bringing extensive experience from his time with the Columbus Blue Jackets and Winnipeg Jets, he mentors Leonard, a rising star known for his explosive playstyle. The two players have developed a strong bond, sharing not just living space, but also insights on how to improve their game.
Their daily routine consists of training, cooking meals, and even tackling household chores like washing dishes and cleaning. This arrangement might seem simple, but it plays a significant role in fostering a team-first mentality that Dubois emphasizes. Leonard has particularly appreciated Dubois's advice, especially on navigating the pressures of professional hockey.
Despite the inherent challenges of living with another player, Leonard and Dubois have found joy in the little moments, such as spontaneous video game tournaments or watching hockey together. As they prepare for the upcoming season, both players are focused not just on their individual performances, but on how their friendship can reflect positively on their respective teams. This off-ice camaraderie could very well translate to on-ice chemistry, making them players to watch this season.
