EDGE Analysis

It's no surprise that Allen will get a chance to follow-up his stellar Game 1 effort Wednesday. In that contest, he turned away 51 of 52 Minnesota shots through 77:48 worth of ice time in the Blues' 2-1 overtime triumph. He'll match up Friday against Devan Dubnyk, who took the loss Wednesday, while allowing two goals on 26 shots.
