Jakub Dobes is drawing attention with a very unusual routine during Montreal Canadiens practice.
It’s the first time we’ve seen something like this in Brossard.
In the footage, there’s a major contrast between how the organization’s different goalies are behaving.
While Jacob Fowler and Samuel Montembeault chose to stay longer to work on additional drills.
At the other end of the ice, Jakub Dobes was skating completely alone, ignoring the rest of the group and doing some fairly unique exercises, let’s put it that way!
In the video, the goalie appears completely lost in his thoughts, calmly operating in his own world.
Marc-Olivier Cook even wonders (somewhat jokingly) what might be going on in the netminder’s head.
In hockey, goalies often have very specific routines, and Dobes seems to be quite unique in that regard.
This video sequence perfectly illustrates the reality of mental preparation at the professional level.
A unique scene involving Montreal Canadiens goalie Jakub Dobes
This calmness strongly contrasts with the usual intensity of practices led by Martin St-Louis.
A few days ago, Jakub Dobes clearly expressed his desire to stay focused on himself, and he’s showing it here.
Jakub Dobes, 24 years old, is a 6-foot-4 goalie who was selected in the 5th round by the Montreal Canadiens in 2020.
