Jakub Dobes stops 30 shots in first win
by Bruno Mulé | Canadiens Correspondent | Fri, Oct 10th 9:35am EDT
Jakub Dobes made 30 saves in Thursday's 5-1 victory over the Red Wings, earning his first win of the season. Starting the second game of a back-to-back set, the rookie netminder was impressive, with the only blemish being a first-period power-play goal.
Fantasy Impact:
While Sam Montembeault is the team's starter, Dobes is expected to serve as a high-end backup. The 24-year-old was solid in his NHL debut last season, posting a 2.74 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 16 appearances. He will likely get regular starts, particularly in back-to-back situations, making him a strong spot starter and a valuable third goalie in deeper fantasy formats.
