And he is very athletic. A prospect flying under the radar.

Why doesn't the larger prospect simply eat the smaller ones?

Dobes could be in Montreal by trade deadline. Many teams usually looking for netminding as season goes on. Habs Have a couple NHL caliber ones on cheap contract

GETTINGGGG CLOSERRRR

I think, he will be better than Primeau, as a matter of fact, i think he's already better than him, because he's a very confident goalie.

I hope he starts strong and forces management to adjust the current NHL tandem

I'm excited for him. He's big and very athletic for his size. His positioning was a weakness at start of last year, was overcommitting to shots and exerting unnecessary energy flying all over the crease when he didn't have to. But he's cleaned that up nicely. I see a lot of Pekka Rinne similarities.

Fans need to temper their expectations though especially for a rookie goalie. They take time. I fear one bad game and there will be threads about how he's not NHL calibre, etc lol
