Do you remember that famous photo of Jakub Dobes on his mattress?

Last year, the goalie posted photos on his Instagram account showing him on his new mattress. It was part of a sponsorship deal with JumpBed, and his teammates teased him relentlessly in the comments, especially about the second photo.

But in reality, it helped him win several games in a row to start the year… and have a season in which he established himself as the team's No. 1 goalie. So it clearly worked.

That said, the photo is back in the news today… thanks to Jayden Struble. Because the defenseman, too, partnered with the JumpBed brand today.

And in addition to a standard photo, the defenseman took the opportunity to post a second photo… in which he teases his goalie.

High-qualityIn a photo montage, he cut out his head and pasted it onto Dobes's head in his photo from last summer. And the goalie, in response to all this, simply wrote “Seriously?” with a laugh.

We know the atmosphere in the Habs' locker room is great, and this is a good example of that. In addition to Dobes, Noah Dobson, Juraj Slafkovský, and Zachary Bolduc also reacted to the post.

And Patrik Laine, even though he's no longer with the organization, did too.

The photo of the mattress, taken at the start of last season, became a running gag among the Habs fanbase. But clearly, in the locker room, the guys enjoyed it too… to the point where Struble took the opportunity to poke a little fun at his goalie today.

Let's hope that, just like with Dobes, the photo of Struble's mattress will help him take off this season, hehe.


In a nutshell

– I love it!

– Signing in Trois-Rivières.

– Great news.
