Allen will start Wednesday's game against Boston, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen recently cleared COVID-19 protocols and will tend the net for the first time since Dec. 14, so rust could be an issue for the goalie. Additionally, several players that were stuck in COVID-19 protocols are returning, so the players in front of Allen could exhibit rust. This will be Montreal's first game since a Jan. 1 loss to Florida.
