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

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

He's got a wide open shot to take the 1G position before Fowler does.

Monty and Primeau ain't it.
You are not wrong...what I would like to see is more progress until around Christmas, then look at how he is doing. He has serious potential.
