What It Means:

Allen got the night off on Monday but will be back out to make his fourth start in eight days. The Blues goaltender has struggled on the road this year. In his 12 games played, he owns a 4-6-1 record with a .879 save percentage and 3.35 goals-against average. Allen gave up five goals on 26 shots in his last start in Dallas on November 3.

Our models like Allen's chances Tuesday with a projected 2.4 goals allowed, 24.5 saves, and a 61.0 percent chance of winning -- making him our sixth-best goalie option in a 24-goalie slate.
