On January 21, 2024, the Flames announced that Dubé would begin an indefinite leave from the team, citing his mental health and saying that he was "under the care of health professionals".[16][17] On January 30, 2024, Dubé was charged with sexual assault after a 2018 alleged assault in London, Ontario.[18][19] The team released a statement saying that they "had no knowledge of pending charges at the time Dillon's request for a leave of absence was granted."[20] On February 5, 2024, the London Police Service announced that Dubé had been charged with one count of sexual assault.[21]
