He's got a bit of fire in him as he isn't hesitant to engage in scrums around the net, especially if it started because someone hit him.
Those were 2 MAJOR LEAGUE Bumps he took man.. Holy hell
I thought for sure after the 2nd one the fairy tail was over for a bit.. but he seems pretty OK afterwards
What a tough kid
Real exciting times right now
I dont know if his 'swagger/attitude' hurt or helped him in Europe or NCAA or wtv
But that type of demeanor and confidence he's showing off will DEFInitely help him in the NHL to get his bearings set, especially in a city like MTL where the Goalies become Saints, Deities
Thats a good comparable, I was getting prime Dubnyk vibes, he's big, covers a lot of the net and is very sound technically.Dobes posture reminds me of of Pekka Rinne.
The way he stopped Drouin amd Rantanen reminds me of Carey Price.
Swagger and style to do it in Montreal.
Monty doesn't get it. Same pads as he wore last year. Like bro, that's back up mentality.
Yeah, I love that shootout move for Goalies because the shooter is expecting the G to just flop and be on his stomach and you step around and then just easy goalThe most impressive part of the night was his recovery after biting on Rantanen’s shootout attempt. Popping back up that fast, with that wide of base, with very little change up top, as he keeps tracking laterally, and stays square… damn. Don’t think Rantanen expected it - I know I didn’t. You’re not going to find many big goalies that can do it that quickly/smoothly at 23.

Very good observation, he has that come at me bro look to him. An old dude like me shouldn't even use that because it sounds wrong lol.The most impressive part of the night was his recovery after biting on Rantanen’s shootout attempt.

That's what impressed me too. He is insanely fast for a guy his size at getting up off his knees. Very impressed with him so far. Hopefully he can keep it up.The most impressive part of the night was his recovery after biting on Rantanen’s shootout attempt.

Only 2 games, but dude looks legit. Does he get the net against Vancouver?

Well, if he does get the start, it's probably to give Monty a bit of a rest. I agree with you.No, he is not even in the conversation of a job share at this point. Monty will continue to get the majority of the starts and Dobes won't start consecutive games unless Monty is hurt or goes on a really bad run. Goaltending is 90% psychological and Marty is no fool and won't start messing with Monty's mind after such a minuscule sample.
Does anyone have the post-game interview? I didn't see it.
The part where Xhekaj jumped wasn't there, it must have been a different interview.
Monty is the #1 unless he has a few bad games and Dobes doesn't. Then, if they are in playoff contention, they will ;likely do whatever they think gives them the best chance.Well, if he does get the start, it's probably to give Monty a bit of a rest. I agree with you.

Imagine if we had him at the beginning of the season instead of Primeau
Him and Fowler will be a solid duo for years to come (hopefully)
If he we had him here from the beginning of the season, I think we’d have 4-8 more points (a combination of points that we lost playing Primeau and a fatigued Monty) and would be in a playoff spot right now.
Is that the guy who pushed for Fowler?He's a Vincent Riendeau pick BTW.
