Allen was the first goalie off during morning skate, implying he'll start Monday's road game against the Predators, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen will take the crease, allowing Jordan Binnington some rest after starting the last four games. Following a rocky start to the season, Allen has turned things around lately, sporting a 2-0-1 record and .917 save percentage in November. The 29-year-old netminder should have his hands full in this outing, as the Predators rank third with 34.3 shots per game and 3.55 goals per contest.

Allen turned aside 36 shots in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

The Blues' No. 2 netminder got the nod to kick off a weekend back-to-back and had a much busier night than Joonas Korpisalo at the other end of the ice. While Allen made some tough stops to get St. Louis a point, he had little chance on Zach Werenski's power-play winner. Allen is now 3-1-1 with a 3.19 GAA and .893 save percentage in 2019-20.

Per Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Allen was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, indicating he'll get the start in goal in Friday's road matchup with Columbus.

EDGE Analysis

Allen was sharp in his last start Nov. 6 against Edmonton, stopping 32 of 34 shots en route to a 5-2 victory. The 29-year-old netminder will attempt to pick up a third straight win in a road matchup with a Columbus club that's 3-5-1 at home this year.

Allen made 32 saves on 34 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

This was Allen's best game in four starts this season, as it was the first time he's given up less than three goals. Playing behind a strong Blues team has Allen at 3-1-0 in his appearances, but he's allowed 13 goals on 110 shots overall. He'll continue to see minimal time in the crease, with Jordan Binnington likely back in goal for Saturday's game in Calgary.

Allen will be between the pipes on the road against Edmonton on Wednesday, Jack Michaels of the Oilers Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen has seen minimal usage this season, appearing in just three games in which he posted a 2-1-0 record and 3.73 GAA. The 29-year-old ceded the netminding duties to youngster Jordan Binnington last season and the organization has never looked back. If the club wants to bolster its lineup at the deadline, it could consider moving Allen and his $4.35 million cap hit.

Allen stopped 20 of 23 shots in a 4-3 overtime win over the Wild on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

It wasn't the most efficient performance by Allen, who was making just his third start of the season, and he'd definitely want Kevin Fiala's long-distance goal back in the second period. But he did enough to help the Blues pick up a win during Jordan Binnington's night off. In his three starts this season, Allen is 2-1-0 with a 3.72 GAA and .855 save percentage.

Allen will be in the visitors' crease for Saturday night's contest against the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Allen will be making just his third start of 2019-20. He owns a 1-1-0 record with a 4.17 GAA and .849 save percentage in two starts, not exactly great numbers to hitch your fantasy wagon to. The Blues are playing the second half of a back-to-back, meaning Allen will need to be on top of his game to give the visitors a chance to win Saturday.

Allen made 20 saves Saturday in a 5-2 loss to Montreal. He allowed four goals.

EDGE Analysis

Allen drives fantasy owners mad. He's full of skill, but suffers from some malady that has completely eroded his game. Take the first goal of the second period; it came at the six second mark when Allen misplayed a shot that was going wide and banked it into his own net. He's now 1-1 with a nauseous 4.17 GAA and .849 save percentage. There's no way he should be in any fantasy net until he shows he can deliver you a .910ish save percentage. Allen's just a liability otherwise.

Allen will get the start for Saturday's matinee against Montreal, Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen gave up four goals to Ottawa in his lone appearance of the season so far, but he still walked away with the win. Starter Jordan Binnington has gone winless in three games since then, so the Blues will turn to Allen in hopes of regaining some momentum here.

Allen made 25 saves in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Allen gave up the only two goals of the first period, but he settled down after that and gave his team a chance to come back against the winless Senators. This underwhelming performance shows why Allen isn't a threat to the starting job Jordan Binnington pulled away from him last season.
