Captain Nick Suzuki Speaks Out on Sam Montembeault and Jakub Dobes Live on TV
Following the big overtime win by the Canadiens last night, he had plenty to say about his young goalie Jakub Dobes.
« He (Jakub Dobes) is the reason we won there in overtime.
You know, those big saves.
We got kinda caught out there.
He bailed us out..
He's got a lot of confidence.
He was itching to play at the Bell Centre. He had his big moment.»
Habs captain, Nick Suzuki, yesterday
That's quite a vote of confidence from the captain for his young goalie.
In case you missed both incredible saves by Dobby in OT:
This must mean so much to the young Dobes, hearing comments like that from his new teammate and captain, especially considering what we reported earlier today: Dobes' dad was in attendance at yesterday's game after 18 months of not seeing him.
Let's remember that Suzuki, who rarely spoke about goaltenders in the past, also made a big statement about Samuel Montembeault in recent hours.
Nick Suzuki is therefore 100% behind his two goalies, and evidently, the locker room is too.
To watch his full press conference, it's right here:
