Martin St-Louis names the starting goalie for the Canadiens-Mammoth matchup

The Montreal Canadiens have just confirmed that the young Dobes will face the Utah Mammoth tomorrow night.

Let's be honest, Dobes is having an up-and-down season. He alternates between good starts and more difficult moments. But on Saturday against the Leafs, he delivered a solid performance.

This small boost gave a bit of hope to those who still believe in him. And honestly, I think this game could really help him if he keeps things simple.

The matchup against the Utah Mammoth will not be easy. It's a team that shoots a lot and brings a ton of traffic in front of the net.

It will therefore be a real test for Dobby. In my view, if Dobes plays another good game and the Habs win, he could truly start establishing himself as a real candidate for the number-one job. Montembeault has been struggling a lot lately, and that opens a door nobody expected to see this quickly.

I think Dobes could take advantage of this moment to completely change the dynamic in net.

The Mammoth's recent games show a team that's hard to read. One night, they play very well and surprise everyone. For example, they beat the Rangers 3-2. But right after, they had tougher outings, especially against the Golden Knights.

For the Canadiens, that means an opponent capable of the best or the worst, and it makes tomorrow's game even more intriguing.

More details to come.
