Once again, it shows just how much of an exceptional athlete and person Samuel Montembeault is.
Whether he wants to admit it or not, it must be tough for him to see Jakub Dobes take his spot and have so much success, even though he's obviously very happy to see the team win - but he doesn't show it at all!
A remarkable gesture from Samuel Montembeault
In the video below, not only does Montembeault look genuinely happy about Dobes' win in Vancouver, but as a true leader, he actually stays on the team bench to personally congratulate each and every member of the Canadiens staff (including Martin St-Louis).
I don't think we see it in this video, but he also went to congratulate Jakub Dobes THREE TIMES, and he seemed genuinely happy for his young teammate. We also witness Caufield hugging Dobes!
Hats off!
In the video, as always, we also see the passing of the "game glasses," and this time Mike Matheson awarded them to center Kirby Dach, who indeed had his best game of the season - and his best game in a long time.
Of course, let's remember that the Habs won 4-3 against the Vancouver Canucks last night, thanks to a 28-save performance on 31 shots by Jakub Dobes.
