Canadiens confirm starting goalie vs. Stars as St. Louis sticks to his plan

This will be a big test for the young goaltender following his emotional game last week.

The announcement was made by Renaud Lavoie, indicating that Dobes will have the chance to help the Habs bounce back after a difficult night for Samuel Montembeault and the Canadiens against the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday.

I think it's a great show of confidence from St-Louis, who has continued to alternate his goaltenders since the start of the season.

According to journalist Priyanta Emrith, St-Louis mentioned that the plan had been set in advance.

According to her, this is therefore not a punishment for Monty, but rather a planned rotation intended to keep both goalies confident.

The Stars are a strong team, with explosive players like Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz.

For Dobes, this will not only be a chance to prove he can stand up to one of the league's best offenses, but also a test of character after a turbulent few days for the Canadiens.

Having watched a lot of Dallas this season, I find they're a team that likes to create traffic in front of the net and rely on deflections.

It definitely won't be an easy game for Dobes!

He's been very solid so far this season. He's played in seven games to date, maintaining a goals-against average of 2.25 and an impressive save percentage of .921.

More details to come.
