Jakub Dobes stays undefeated with win over Rangers
by Bruno Mulé | Canadiens Correspondent | Mon, Jan 20th 4:09pm EST
Jakub Dobes stopped 23 of 27 shots in the Canadiens' 5-4 overtime victory against the Rangers on Sunday. The rookie netminder secured his fifth consecutive win to start his NHL career despite allowing a season-high four goals.
Fantasy Impact:
Dobes’ 1.55 GAA and .940 save percentage remain stellar through his first five outings, even with Sunday’s shakier performance. While some regression is inevitable as he faces more action, the 23-year-old has solidified his role as Montreal's backup, providing reliable support for Sam Montembeault. Dobes’ strong early showings make him an intriguing option in deeper leagues or as a spot start in favorable matchups. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his workload as the season progresses.
