Prospect Info: Jakub Dobes (2020 - 136th, USHL- Omaha Lancers)

[bleuetbio]

Dobes is that solid between ears, like more than 30 consecutives saves. He's a beast.

 

[Shutdown]

he's always been a raw goalie. at Ohio State he was all athleticism, pretty sloppy. he's reigned it in over the years but still has some work to do to contain his game - rebound control, efficiency of movement - and you can tell he knows it. i think it was at the end of the 2nd period (maybe the 1st), he was shaking his head at himself for his lack of control on a last second save.

anyway, good win for him tonight. hope he gets another two games before the end of the season to give Montembeault some rest.

Put Dobes in the net against Red Wings. On April 8th 2025.

Why would we ever do that?

Monty's last 4 games are 4 wins with only 7 goals against. He's been excellent.

He’s got a bit of Tim Thomas in him. Unorthodox, but battles 110% to stop that puck.

He and the team needed that performance.

He's definitely a battler , that might be his single biggest trait IMO, he's been that way since his USHL days. He's an intense competitor, which can be both a good and a bad thing.

Dobes with the .973. He was solid all night and would probably have had a SO if Matheson didnt exist.

LOOK AT DOBBY

“I’m happy everyday that I’m here. There are only 64 goalies in this league. I’m one of them.''

''I’m living the dream. I don’t know how many people wanna be in my shoes…”

If Jakub's learning curve is anywhere near as spectacular as Monty's has been we will all come to realize how blessed we are with this diamond in the rough.
He has already mastered the head space needed to excel in this market/league. He can't help but get better technically and will always be my preference in messy games. He's already proven in Laval he knows how to win before he's learned how to properly play goal.
