Rick Stevens

They ridiculed him at every opportunity.

You know, the fact that, oh, the mattress business and his crying and on and on and on.

And even making up stories about his interactions with the officials, making them up from whole cloth.

And it's been so much so that the Montreal Canadiens communications staff actually stopped Jakob Dobish from speaking with the media that they were...

They were mean because they were cheerleading for Sam Montembeau, obviously.

And there was a timeout.

It wasn't so much a timeout for Dobish, who's, you know, he's unfiltered.

He'll come before the media and say what he thinks.

It was a timeout for the media to get their act together.

And he's just started back on the road trip speaking to the media again after about a week off or so.

And I think, not to pat ourselves on the back, but I think given that it's been such a surprise season, I think to get as many as these correct, when things could have gone a number of different ways, I feel pretty good about our prognosticating way, way back in September, early October.

I think so, too.

Sure.

Who is the most impressive?

This comes from YouTube, comes from one of our regular commenters, P. Moran Fidelt, says Slavkovsky 100% has been impressive this year.

No matter what line they put him on, he contributes to the team and helps get the team wins.

Number two, that's Jakob Dobish for most impressive.

He bounced back from a little rocky start and has been on fire since then.

Absolutely.
