Jakub Dobes

24-Year-Old GoalieG
Montreal Canadiens
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Dobes made the most of his first taste of NHL action, earning a 7-4-3 record with a 2.74 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 16 games with the Canadiens. He surpassed Cayden Primeau for the backup role early in 2024-25. Dobes also posted a .881 save percentage over three playoff games. Dobes isn't going to push Sam Montembeault out of the starting role any time soon, and Primeau will likely be working hard in training camp to regain the backup job. For fantasy, Dobes is a fine option in deep formats behind a Canadiens team that's on the rise, but he's still largely inexperienced entering his age-24 season. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $1.93 million contract with the Canadiens in July of 2025.
Excellent in overtime win
GMontreal Canadiens
October 22, 2025
Dobes stopped 36 of 37 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flames.
ANALYSIS
Dobes had to deal with ample pressure from the Flames, but he held the fort well. The lone goal came off a turnover, which Adam Klapka was able to capitalize on. Dobes has won four straight games to open the year, allowing just six goals on 119 shots. While Sam Montembeault is still the Canadiens' presumptive starter, there's been no drop off in play when head coach Martin St. Louis turns to Dobes. Montembeault will get the nod in the second half of the back-to-back in Edmonton on Thursday, and the Canadiens will complete the road trip with games in Vancouver on Saturday and in Seattle on Tuesday.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could start Thursday
GMontreal Canadiens
October 7, 2025
Eric Engels of Sportsnet expects Dobes to start Thursday's road game versus Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Sam Montembeault will be between the pipes for Wednesday's regular-season opener in Toronto, and Dobes will probably get the second half of Montreal's back-to-back situation. The 24-year-old Dobes posted a 7-4-3 record with one shutout, a 2.74 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 16 regular-season appearances with the Canadiens in 2024-25. He should see more NHL action this year despite occupying the backup role.
