Allen allowed a single goal on 22 shots in a 4-1 victory over the Coyotes on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has now emerged victorious in four of his last five starts, officially bringing him up to the 30-win plateau for the first time in his career. His .914 save percentage and 2.42 GAA are right in line with his career marks of .915 and 2.37, so it's been very much business as usual for the 26-year-old in his first season as the bonafide No. 1 netminder in St. Louis.

Allen will be the starting goaltender for Monday's game against Arizona, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old has been hot lately, notching a .950 save percentage and 1.49 GAA in his last six games. The Coyotes are 27th in the league with 2.24 goals per game, so Allen will be in prime position to continue his hot streak.

Allen gave up the game-winning goal with three seconds left in overtime Saturday against the Flames. He made 28 saves in a 3-2 loss.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has only given up three goals twice in the last 10 games. The rest of games, he allowed two or fewer. Allen went through some queasy streaks this season, but he might just be settling into a decent groove. He's not the young stud everyone thought he'd be early in his career. But Allen has become a reasonably reliable option in the blue paint.

Allen will start in goal Saturday evening, fielding shots from the Flames at home, Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen is certifiably hot with wins in each of his last three games to complement a 1.00 GAA, .966 save percentage and a shutout over that span. There's a chance that he'll be countered by former teammate Brian Elliott in this next one.

Allen stopped all but one of 28 shots faced in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Since the Blues started a winning streak that's seen them win nine of their last 10 games, Allen has been extra tough on opponents. He's 6-1 with a .956 save percentage and a 1.29 goals-against average. The Blues have just one back-to-back remaining on the schedule -- the final weekend of the season -- so coach Mike Yeo could ride a hot Allen during the team's postseason push.

Allen will field shots from the Canucks as the home starter Thursday night, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Vancouver's chances of making it to the postseason come close to zilch, but that doesn't mean they won't be content playing spoiler. Here's a team that stunned the Blackhawks with a 5-4 home win in Chicago on Tuesday. Allen is certifiably hot with wins in six of his last seven games to complement a 1.29 GAA and .956 save percentage in March.

Allen made 26 saves in Tuesday's 4-2 win over Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
While Allen had to stand tall until the Blues offense was able to solve counterpart Calvin Pickard, four goals in the final 23:10 turned a 1-0 deficit into a relatively routine 4-2 victory. He has had the benefit of facing bottom-six offenses four times during his current 6-1-0 stretch, and St. Louis has four more such opponents on the schedule over its next five. Expect Allen to continue beating up on this weak competition with a playoff berth at stake.

Allen will guard the cage for Tuesday's meeting with Colorado, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen comes into Tuesday's contest on a roll with a 5-1-0 record which includes a pair of shutouts and a .961 save percentage. The netminder will face off against the league's most inept offense (1.94 goals per game), which should bode well for his chances of securing win No. 28 of the year.

Allen stopped all 31 shots he faced in Saturday's win against the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
It was the 15th career shutout for Allen, and fourth this season. He has managed at least four shutouts in each of his past three NHL campaigns. Allen also earned his 27th win of the season to set a new career mark. After a bit of a sluggish start he has righted the ship and is performing like a true No. 1 fantasy goaltender. It's going to take a bit of work to pare down his 2.53 GAA by the end of the season, as it is slightly above his 2.40 career mark. However, the way he is going it certainly is possible.
