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.
Expected starter for Thursday
Dobes is set to guard the road goal against New Jersey on Thursday, Stu Cowan of The Montreal Gazette reports Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Dobes has a 6-0-0 record, 1.97 GAA and .930 save percentage in six appearances in 2025-26. While those are ideal numbers, Dobes has surrendered six goals on 52 shots (.885 save percentage) across his past two games, so he might be cooling from his hot start. The Devils are 9-4-0 and tied for sixth in goals per game with 3.54 this year.

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.
