The Penguins’ new president spoke to the graduating class, as well, discussing the work he did while attending Brock and his touching on his departure from the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Brock presented him with a degree in Doctor of Law honoris causa and can be referred to as Dr. Dubas.
While a student at Brock, Dubas took his first job in hockey as a scout for the Sault. St. Marie Greyhounds.
Dubas talked about his time working with the Greyhounds while attending Brock and he told the graduates to look at their future’s as an investment, not a cost.
