Allen (lower body) is expected to start Thursday's home game with Dallas.

EDGE Analysis

Allen is poised to return to the crease following a 25-game absence due to his lower-body injury. Prior to getting hurt, the netminder was mired in an eight-game losing streak during which he went 0-7-1 with a 3.43 GAA and .898 save percentage. With Allen back in the fold, the team will likely send Cayden Primeau back to the minors while Allen and Samuel Montembeault split up the workload.
