People across the league know that Jakub Dobes has an issue

At the moment, the Canadiens are going with Samuel Montembeault.

The team tried to have Cayden Primeau as the number two goalie, but it didnt work out.

Now, Jakub Dobes is in town to back up the Quebecois since the holiday season.

The results were conclusive at first, but he slowed down.

He couldnt keep the pace.

As a result, Dobes is a goalie who plays little.

The Canadiens would probably like to give him more games, but they cant afford to send him to Laval.

And they cant afford to put him in front of the net in Montreal either.

In fact, if the team cant have him play in the top league, its mostly because other teams know he has an apparent weakness that prevents him from performing well.

Pierre McGuire, on his podcast, reported that teams know he goes down on his knees too quickly and often gets beaten in the top of the net.

And its not the first time weve heard that.

Pierre McGuire believes theres a problem with Jakub Dobes game and thats why #GoHabsGo arent playing him...

Theres a problem with Dobes game...

around the league people know that if you elevate the puck on this guy youre going to score a lot of goals #thesickpodcast pic.twitter.com/w8wvvoNb5t The Sick Podcast The Eye Test (@sickpodnhl) March 25, 2025 So when he plays, teams simply aim for the top of the net.

And generally, it works.

For now, we can potentially expect to see Dobes play three times before the end of the regular season.

Were talking about the last three blocks of two games in two nights for the Canadiens.

But even that can change.

All the Canadiens can hope for is that the fact that he has played too little since Christmas wont hinder his development.

After all, you know as well as I do that a young goalie needs to play often.

Maybe hell have the chance to play a few games in the playoffs in Laval, though.

Overtime Yes.
