Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jakub Dobes had a fantastic week, and he has now been rewarded for it in a big way. Dobes has been announced as the NHL's First Star of the Week, and when looking at how well he played, it makes all the sense in the world. Dobes had an excellent week for the Canadiens, and the truth is in his stats. In three games for the Canadiens during it, he had a 3-0-0 record, a 1.33 goals-against average, and a .962 save percentage. With numbers like these, there is no question that he stepped up big time for the Canadiens this past week, and at an incredibly important time of the season. Dobes kicked off his week by stopping 41 out of 43 shots against the Carolina Hurricanes on March 24. He then had 25 saves on 26 shots against the Columbus Blue Jackets on March 26. Then, to end the week, he had 34 saves on 35 shots against the Hurricanes in his most recent start. With this, there is no question that Dobes was the NHL's biggest star this past week. It will now be interesting to see if he can stay hot from here.
