Dobson collected two assists in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah.
The veteran blueliner helped set up goals by Nick Suzuki in the first period and Adam Engstrom in the third. Dobson had a sluggish start to the season, but over the last four games he's roared to life with five assists, including his first power-play point. After scoring double-digit goals in each of the last five seasons, however, Dobson's still looking to light the lamp for the first time in 2026-27.

Dobson registered two assists, launched four shots on net and recorded two blocked shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Stars.
Dobson secured his first multi-point game of the 2026-27 campaign in Thursday's big win. He chipped in with a helper on each of Alex Newhook's goals, which were both scored in the first half of Thursday's clash. With the pair of apples, Dobson is up to five assists, 30 shots on net, 16 hits and 18 blocked shots over 13 appearances this season. While he might rotate in and out of the Canadiens' top defensive pair with veteran Mike Matheson (lower body), Dobson is currently playing in all scenarios. The 26-year-old Dobson remains a solid fantasy option in standard leagues that value category coverage.

Dobson logged an assist and three blocked shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Jets in the Heritage Classic.
Dobson has started slow on offense this year with three helpers across 11 games. The veteran defenseman has still worked in a top-four role as well as on the power play, but he hasn't found much consistency. His non-scoring numbers are fine with 24 shots on net, 15 hits and 16 blocked shots, and he's added 24 shots on net, giving him a slight uptick in shot volume compared to last year. In other words, he should improve with a bit more time, and fantasy managers would be best to stay patient with his production.

Dobson logged an assist, five shots on goal and five blocked shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Sabres in Game 2.
The helper was Dobson's first point in three games since he returned from a thumb injury. The defenseman has been listed on the third pairing since his return, so it's possible he's not playing at 100 percent. He's added seven shots on net, nine blocked shots and five hits across three playoff contests.

Dobson (thumb) is expected to play in Game 7 against Tampa Bay on Sunday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
Dobson will make his 2026 playoff debut after getting injured against Columbus on April 11. In the 2025-26 regular season, he provided 12 goals, 47 points, 158 shots on net, 188 blocked shots and 62 hits in 80 games. Dobson will replace Arber Xhekaj in Sunday's lineup versus the Lightning.

Dobson (thumb) will be a game-time decision for Game 7 against Tampa Bay on Sunday, according to Eric Engels of Sportsnet.
Dobson sat out the first six games of the playoffs and the final two games of the regular season. However, he could be available to play in Sunday's Round 1 finale versus the Lightning. Dobson produced 12 goals, 47 points, 158 shots on net, 188 blocked shots and 62 hits in 80 games during the 2025-26 regular season.
