Allen made 21 saves in a 3-1 loss to the Rangers on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

He allowed two goals. The first was a deflection off a Ranger skate and then Allen's teammate's skate; the second was on a 2-on-1. The Canadiens have dropped three straight and are on their longest losing streak to open a season since 1995-96 when they lost their first five. Allen is a tough activation right now. Consider other options.
