Allen will guard the goal for Friday's Game 2 meeting with Nashville.

EDGE Analysis

Allen seemed unstoppable during his first-round matchup with Minnesota, as he posted a 1.47 GAA and .956 save percentage. The same can't be said for the netminder's performance in Game 1 as he allowed four pucks to find the back of the net on 32 shots. The Preds offense is averaging 3.40 goals per outing, so look for them to test the 26-year-old early and often.
