The Canadiens made a small but significant change for young goalie Jakub Dobes.

The HabsOnReddit page was the first to point it out, but there will now be a small addition to Dobes’ official jerseys.

Dobes now has an accent on his last name.

We love it!

A nice little touch and a nice little change from the Montreal Canadiens for Jakub Dobes

In the past few hours, the organization released a nice official statement to confirm the change.

 

 

It was indeed also done in the Canadiens’ locker room.

As some fans pointed out in the comments, it will be interesting to see if Tricolore Sports will follow suit and apply this modification to Dobes’ official jerseys in stores.

That would be wonderful.

Dobes, 23, has quickly become a fan favorite for the Montreal Canadiens with his brilliance since being called up from the Laval Rocket.

In five games so far this season, and in his career in the NHL, he has a perfect record of five wins and no losses, with a goals-against average of 1.55 and a save percentage of 0.941.

He won’t be in net tonight, but we might see him again as early as Thursday.
