EDGE Analysis
It was yet another forget-about-it night for Allen and the Habs. The team has lost five straight games and have been outscored 16-4 in their past two games.

Allen stopped 33 of 37 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Allen didn't have much of a chance in this one, as the Lightning carried play throughout and finished with a 37-26 edge in shots. Playing for a rebuilding Canadiens team doesn't offer Allen much margin for error; he has strung together consecutive wins only once all season and is 0-4-1 over his last five starts.
