It's looking like Dobes could be our future starter and perhaps Laval's starter as soon as next year.

Could we get a Dobes/Dichow tandem next year in Laval? That would be fun as heck

Probably not two rookies but i agree, Dobes (said Dobesh) is looking mighty fine!!

I’m more optimistic about him then Primeau

Dichow has another year to his SHL contract, so no.

put Dobes on Quinnipiac and I could see him being better then Perets, I could see him being a finalist.

Oh yeah I know it's a score effect for Perets. Dobes I think is the 2nd best goalie in the NCAA behind Levi. Ohio State just sucks defensively although they aren't as bad as last year and somehow Dobes' save percentage is worse. I think he might prefer the higher workload.

Perets should deserve a look. An undrafted goalie, Montreal kid. Maybe a bit short for the actual NHL standards. But Levi is short too.

Honest question: What makes Dobes's NCAA performance better than Primeau? And this is not a preloaded question. I remember Primeau performing well in the NCAA. What eye test tells us Dobes has higher potential?

Can someone who knows both their performance in the NCAA well explain it with good context? Not the gullible context. The context that separates their value pre NHL?

Primeau:
* 70 NCAA games
* 2.00 GAA
* .932 Sv%
* 5 U20 WJC games (1.61 GAA and .936 Sv%)

Dobes:
* 65 NCAA games
* 2.24 GAA
* .928 Sv%
* No U20 WJC to compare too. Not fair but worth mentioning.

Northeastern is a lot better than Ohio State is as a hockey program seems silly to stat watch.

Spare me with the silly choice of words. I was asking for context and eye test evaluation and posted the stats as a starting point. The narrative of my question was clearly presented. It's not just a stat watch.

So are you saying because Northeastern was/is a lot better than Ohio State, Dobes is going to be for sure better when he enters the AHL/NHL? What weighted factor would you put on the hockey programs?

Is there any other context? I'm sure it's deeper than just the hockey programs?

Montreal posts plenty of great videos of Dobes playing you can see from those videos what his game is I don't think comparing him to Primeau is meaningful unless it's to try and draw attention to something specific or to ask a leading question.

Not really a true answer to your question but goalies feel impossible to predict. I don't really care for their stats much. Too much variety and not always the best way to judge a goalie.

I like the eye test more than anything. I always watch for their positioning, movement, quickness, athleticism, confidence/swagger & how well they read the play/track the puck. Usually a good combo of all of the above will translate well to NHL.

Primeau reminds me of fucale. Nothing special and at best you're looking at a backup position. They got a really shaky vibe too. Not good lol.

Dobes looks much better and solid from what I can see. Looks very calm in the net.
