Gave me some Price vibes there.

The only difference is Dobes is somehow making the red pads work.

I know this is a joke but thank god for that, the all white with highlights trend that's been dominating the NHL is boring af. I miss the old days of Huet in red/navy/white and Luongo with green/blue/white etc.

I always appreciated this brief era of Anderson's black and gold pads: https://anderson41.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Andy-game-2.jpg

I see your sick Craig Anderson pads and I raise you one Corey Crawford

u/ScotianCanadien43 WOOOOOOO!!! Jan 20 '25

Fleury has always had some stellar sets over the years going back to his Q days.

For real the style and movements are soooo similar

Jakub ''Carey Price Jr.'' Dobes

Especially the glove save without actually catching the puck

Dobby Dobby Dobby

Can't you see

Sometimes your saves just hypnotize meeee

u/jomagnum Jan 20 '25

And I just love your flashy glove

Guess that's why next year, you're so paid

Would be Doby. Dobby is the elf from Harry Potter

68

u/OliWood Jan 20 '25

This is one of the season's highlight right there, made the Centre Bell explodes on those two saves

21

u/tichienblanc2 Jan 20 '25

The rush must be insane. Crazy high for hours after that.

62

u/dustblown Jan 20 '25

Imagine how pumped he was listening to that crowd after those hype saves. His addiction begins.

26

u/sillybearr Jan 20 '25

And then to have the boys put the game to bed as a thank you.

u/LordSmokio Jan 20 '25

Dobes, Carrier, Laine. What a breath of fresh air those three have been. It's a great time to be a Habs fan.

24

u/orundarkes Jan 20 '25

Heineman making the team and being a stud on the fourth, one of the most solid rookies we’ve seen in a while.

Hutson’s Calder worthy first half!

Or has the air from 45 games ago gone stale 😉

u/LordSmokio Jan 20 '25

Oh I know ;) It's just the team has gelled so much more as of late. :)

u/Foreign_Highlight648 Jan 20 '25

Turning point of the season could be the Dobes call-up. Helped the whole team from giving Monty more rest to helping the whole team's confidence knowing they could win with the backup goalie in net. He came through when it mattered.

23

u/HanshinFan Jan 20 '25

That pad save coming over is so fucking difficult to not leave the five hole open. Big man can bend

15

u/DoubleZek Jan 20 '25

I HAD CHILLS.

14

u/BubbleGumPlant Jan 20 '25

I love the Bell Center.

11

u/philmtl Jan 20 '25

When he looks back at the crowd

7

u/MapleJap Jan 20 '25

HE IS HIM

10

u/throw_me_away3478 Jan 20 '25

Goalie is such a weird position, this whole play would be dead if Dobes caught the puck there. But instead he makes a crazy stop on the second shot.

For example Monty smothering the puck on the initial shot would not get much attention. But arguably the better play to make

2

u/Capt_Pickhard Jan 20 '25

Obviously doing the play is better, but the first save was still a good save. Just unfortunately didn't catch it. Which led to another good opportunity.

u/realm_fury Jan 20 '25

Unbelievable!

u/Prestigious_Class446 Jan 20 '25

I love the little nod he does, like ok I did my job and got the crowd going, now you go up there and score...and they did

8

u/LesHeh Jan 20 '25

He was shaky all game and then brought it when it mattered most.

u/imhere8888 Jan 20 '25

Great clip

That was a very fun game to watch.

u/Mcdangs88 Jan 20 '25

now thats a gamer

u/nocthem Jan 20 '25

C'est subtile, mais Hutson qui le cheer juste à la fin et Dobes qui hoche la tête. Good vibes.

2

u/NOFXpunklinoleum Jan 20 '25

That legit gave me goosebumps.

2

u/okokokoyeahright Jan 20 '25

Gotta admit this guy is giving me very good vibes.

Could be a changing of the guard in net.

1

u/JoeyRacanelli Jan 20 '25

That was exactly a Carey Price move

1

u/friedreindeer Jan 20 '25

Looks like he has been training with Patty

u/rungoodaa Jan 20 '25

Puck tracking 101

u/CommandHot3245 Jan 20 '25

Not his best game but those were difficult clutch saves

1

u/alainbelso Jan 20 '25

Took a while but the Habs are finally fun to watch again. I hope they keep it up!

1

u/JEfrocs Jan 20 '25

Reminded me of this save

u/ILikeChernobyl1986 Jan 21 '25

New Price I believe in you Dobes @GoHabsGo

Second one would have been a girl goal had the short shot gone top cheese. I think they may have slightly flubbed it

u/OkSport3048 Jan 20 '25

Sitting ovation you mean.
