The news we were waiting for has just been confirmed for goaltender Jakub Dobes, he officially becomes an option for Kent Hughes.

This has been evident, especially over the past few hours, but the organization unfortunately no longer has confidence in Cayden Primeau.

It’s only a matter of time before he is replaced.

A source even mentioned that the Canadiens were about to call up Jakub Dobes, but he got injured just as it was about to happen.

In short, he is now officially healthy again!

Dobes, who suffered a lower-body injury against the Toronto Marlies on December 6, is finally ready to return to action!

Dobes, Filip Mesar, and Vincent Arseneau are all back for the Rocket tonight against Belleville. We’ll still have to wait for Brandon Gignac, who is nearing a return. Riley Kidney and Sean Farrell will be scratched from Pascal Vincent’s lineup tonight.

A call-up coming for Jakub Dobes?

Knowing that Martin St-Louis didn’t even want to confirm whether Cayden Primeau would be in net tomorrow night for the second game of a back-to-back, that says a lot.

Do you think the time has come to call up a goaltender from the Laval Rocket?

In any case, it’s now confirmed for Dobes.

He has been given the green light, is back to full health, and is officially an option for the Montreal Canadiens if needed.

We also acknowledge the upcoming returns to action for Filip Mesar, Vincent Arseneau, and Brandon Gignac.

This time could very well be the right one for Dobes.

The 6 foot 5, 215-pound goaltender has a record of 8 wins, 3 losses, and 1 overtime loss this season with the Laval Rocket.

He has a goals-against average of 2.55 and a save percentage of 0.904.

More details will follow.
