Allen will defend the blue paint during Tuesday's road game against the Wild, Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was a tad shaky in his last start Saturday against St. Louis, surrendering four goals on 30 shots, but he was still able to come away with a win thanks to fantastic goal support from his teammates. He'll try to pick up a second straight victory in a road matchup with a surging Minnesota team that's won three of its last four games.

Allen stopped 28 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
The Wild's final goal was scored into an empty net. Allen had little chance on either puck that beat him, as the first was set up by an unlucky bounce off the boards behind him, and the second by a bad giveaway in the neutral zone that created a two-on-one for Minnesota. The veteran goalie is 2-3-0 to begin the season, but his 2.62 GAA and .917 save percentage point the blame at the team in front of him for that record.

Allen made stopped 25 of 30 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Stars on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Joe Pavelski had Allen's number all night long -- the grizzled veteran scored his first hat trick since early 2019 and had his 20th four-point NHL game. It was Allen's first rough game of the season, but it likely won't be his last. The young Habs squad has a rough road ahead over 82 games.

Allen turned aside 25 shots in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old netminder took a shutout into the third period before Arizona finally got a puck by him, but it was still a strong performance from Allen in his return from parental leave. He's got two wins in three starts to begin the season, and with there being no hint of a return date for Carey Price (knee), Allen seems locked in as Montreal's No. 1 goalie.
