Dobes will be between the road pipes in Buffalo on Saturday, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Dobes has won five straight games, turning aside 26 Colorado shots in a 7-3 victory Thursday, his latest win. Overall, 24-year-old netminder is 17-5-3 with a 2.96 GAA and an .890 save percentage across 25 appearances this season. The Sabres have been firing on all cylinders of late and are sixth in NHL scoring, generating 3.40 goals per game in 2025-26.

Dobes made 26 saves Thursday in a 7-3 win over Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

It was his fifth straight win. Dobes extended his point streak to eight games (7-0-1). That's the longest by a Canadiens rookie goalie since Mike Condon had an eight-game streak in 2015-16. Dobes is 17-5-3 with a 2.96 GAA and .890 save percentage in 24 starts (25 appearances) this season.

Dobes is slated to guard the cage at home against the Avalanche on Thursday, Stu Cowan of The Montreal Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dobes will make consecutive starts for the first time since early December, despite having gone 6-0-1 in his last seven outings. At this point, the starting gig in Montreal seems to be up for grabs. As such, a couple more strong starts from Dobes could see him unseat Sam Montembeault as the Habs' No. 1 option.

Dobes made 32 saves in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

The 24-year-old netminder remains undefeated in January, going 4-0-0 on the month. Dobes hasn't taken a regulation loss since Dec. 9, putting together a 6-0-1 record in seven starts with a 2.52 GAA and an .898 save percentage. However, he remains behind Sam Montembeault on the depth chart for Montreal.

Dobes will be in goal against Vegas at home Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Dobes is undefeated in regulation over his last six appearances, posting a 5-0-1 record, but has played in just six of the Canadiens' last 21 contests. Still, with Jacob Fowler having been sent back to AHL Laval, the 24-year-old Dobes should see an increased workload behind Sam Montembeault.

Dobes made 16 saves in a 4-3 win over the Wild on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

It's Dobes' third straight win, although that's the extent of games he's played in January. Such was the peril of a three-headed goalie monster, but Jacob Fowler was returned to the AHL a few days ago. Dobes now has sole possession of the second seat, and he could be a solid daily play depending on the matchup. Overall, he's 15-5-3 with a 3.01 GAA and an .887 save percentage.

Dobes will start in net at home against the Wild on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Tuesday's contest will give Dobes the chance to extend his win streak to three games despite allowing eight combined goals in his previous two outings. Overall, the 24-year-old netminder has a 14-5-3 record with a 3.01 GAA and an .880 save percentage over 22 appearances this season. With Jacob Fowler recently sent down to the AHL, Dobes will likely have to impress in Tuesday's contest if he wants to fend off the 21-year-old rookie for a full-time role in the NHL. Entering Tuesday's contest, Minnesota ranks 15th across the league with 3.16 goals per game, meaning Dobes will have his work cut out for him.

Dobes made 20 saves in Monday's 6-3 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

The game was tied 3-3 through two periods, but Montreal dominated the final 20 minutes to hand Dobes the win. The 24-year-old has made only five starts over the last month as part of the Habs' three-man committee between the pipes, but he's gotten the job done when called upon, going 4-0-1 with a 2.56 GAA and an .893 save percentage.

Dobes will tend the twine at home versus Vancouver on Monday, Marc Antoine Godin of Radio Canada reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dobes has found himself watching from the sidelines of late, featuring in just one of the Canadiens' last nine outings. That lone appearance was far from impressive, as he gave up five goals on 25 shots (.800 save percentage), though he did still manage to get the win over the Hurricanes on Jan. 1.

Dobes stopped 20 of 25 shots in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

Dobes was coming off three straight games in which he had posted a save percentage above .900, but that wasn't the case here. Fortunately for him, the 24-year-old still managed to get the win after receiving enough support from the offense in one of the highest-scoring games of the season. Dobes has won three of his last four starts, going 3-0-1 with a 2.45 GAA and an .899 save percentage over that stretch.
