This decision was announced shortly before the team’s departure for the southern United States. At the end of the week, the Habs will visit the Florida Panthers on Saturday and the Tampa Bay Lightning the next day. The Czech’s promotion obviously does not represent good news for Cayden Primeau, who could well find himself in the American Hockey League if he goes through waivers unclaimed. For the moment, the CH has not revealed its intentions on this subject.
Dobes is one of the reasons for the Rocket’s success in 2024-2025. He maintained a 9-3-1 record, a 2.44 goals-against average and a .910 save percentage.
Furthermore, the men of chief instructor Martin St-Louis will train in Fort Lauderdale around 2 p.m. According to the Sportsnet network, forward player Patrik Laine is accompanying the team on this journey.
