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.
Confirmed starter for Wednesday
Dobes will tend the twine in Utah on Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Dobes got back in the win column Saturday against Toronto on the heels of his four-game losing streak. His 24-save performance against the Leafs was his best showing in a month -- Dobes hadn't allowed two goals or less since Oct. 22 in Calgary prior to Saturday. As for Wednesday's opponent, the Mammoth have won back-to-back games over the Rangers and Golden Knights following a four-game skid. Logan Cooley and Dylan Guenther clicked on Utah's second line after being reunited in Monday's 5-1 win over Vegas, combining for seven points, so this could be a challenging task for Dobes and the Canadiens in the first game of their road trip out west.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could start Thursday
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.
