Ok! I am concerned about this because I don't want Dobes' confidence destroyed by being relied upon to fix a problem he shouldn't have to fix. Throwing him in against Florida or Tampa is risky. They need a vet backup immediately. They need to let Dobes develop. Let's see. - ThreadSky

Nah. He's 23. Time to step up. Can't baby these guys forever.

My guess is it’s a short term fix to give Monty a break with two B2B approaching and no faith in Primeau. I think the vet comes soon unless Dobes shines in what is likely to be no more than a couple of appearances if he does not.

That is the maximum that it has to be. He needs to be playing consistently in the AHL.

Agree completely. Nothing wrong with giving Dobes a look. He deserves a call up and I'm sure he's very happy to get it. Unless he's stellar (and ready) they will tell him what he needs to keep working on and send him back down. No issue here.

Wild ass guess:

1. Hughes regards Primeau as still having trade value.

2. Primeau has not played for about two weeks

3. Team under-publicises injuries (see: Slafkofsky knee brace)

4. Primeau is injured?

I doubt that, I think they just know he can't make a save and want to push him

mouseofthewest.bsky.social•58 days ago

I think they wanted to trade him last year, Allen was worth more on the market? A few NHL games makes Dobes more marketable too?

But they were leaving Dobes down in Laval until now, which makes me think "injury". Wins are not expected against the Florida teams, losses would not help Dobes' value?

My guess is that they bring him for one game then send him back. While they try to find someone on waivers or on the trade market.

J'aurais préféré Hughes qui, à 28 ans, aurait prit ce rôle là mieux que Dobes je pense (qui serait resté #1 à Laval pendant ce temps)

You might be right but if he has a tough game at least it's not against a bottom feeder. Good to get him a game or two.
