Jakub Dobeš (born May 27, 2001) is a Czech professional ice hockey goaltender for the Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected in the fifth round, 136th overall, by the Canadiens in the 2020 NHL entry draft.
Playing career
Collegiate
Dobeš committed to play college ice hockey for the Ohio State University of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) beginning in the 2021–22 season. Following an outstanding freshman year, posting both a 2.26 goals against average (GAA) and a .934 save percentage, his efforts resulted in multiple awards, including the All-Big Ten Freshman Team, the All-Big Ten First Team, Big Ten Goaltender of the Year, and co-Big Ten Freshman of the Year, which he split with defenseman Luke Hughes.[1] He was also named a semifinalist for the Mike Richter Award presented to the best men's goaltender across NCAA Division I ice hockey.[2]
Professional
Selected in the fifth round (136th overall) by the Montreal Canadiens in the 2020 NHL entry draft, Dobeš signed a two-year, entry-level contract with the Canadiens on March 31, 2023.[3] He subsequently joined Montreal's American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate the Laval Rocket to end the 2022–23 season, but did not see any playing time.[4]
After attending the Canadiens' 2023 training camp, Dobeš was assigned to Laval to start the 2023–24 season.[5] Initially struggling at the onset of his professional career, Dobeš allowed at least three goals in each of his first six starts.[6] However, as the season progressed, he adjusted and became a solid fixture in the Rocket net, consistently starting as the team's top goaltender.[7] He recorded his first AHL shutout on February 28, 2024, making 35 stops in a 4–0 win versus the Bridgeport Islanders.[8] Despite this resurgence,[9] the Rocket would ultimately come up short and miss the 2024 Calder Cup playoffs.[10] Dobeš would finish his inaugural AHL campaign tied for the league lead in games played by a goaltender, with 51.[11]
After posting a 9-3-1 record through 14 games with Laval to begin the 2024–25 season, Dobeš was recalled by the Canadiens on December 27, 2024.[12]
