The Canadians find themselves in the Stanley Cup Playoffs as well, and have quite a superstar on their hands with a 50-goal scorer. Cole Caufield, a Mosinee, Wisconsin, native, played collegiate hockey with the Badgers.
Regardless, now all eyes are on Dubinsky. The senior defenseman is one of the notable players leaving this Badgers squad, but he’s clearly already onto bigger and better things.
Heading to Laval, Quebec, Canada, so soon after his senior season is no easy task, but it’s one Dubinsky is ready for as he looks to take his career to the next level.
Dubinsky’s career began at Minnesota Duluth before he came to Wisconsin for the 2025-26 season. In 39 games played, he scored a pair of goals and had four assists.
