Devils' Jake Allen: Had kitties' number all night long
Jake Allen made 25 saves in a 6-2 win over Florida on Thursday.He came into the game with a 2-8-0 record, 4.86 GAA and .865 save percentage against Florida, but he had the kitties' number all night long. Allen is 4-2-1 with two shutouts in seven starts overall this season (2.30 GAA and .916 save percentage). He's a consistently strong backup who should be deployed whenever he's in the blue paint.

Devils' Jake Allen: First goalie off Thursday
Jake Allen was the first goalie to leave the ice Thursday, New Jersey Devils play-by-play announcer Matt Loughlin reports, indicating he'll tend the twine on the road versus the Panthers.Allen has been used sparingly this season, logging just six games in which he posted a 3-2-1 record with a 2.35 GAA and two shutouts. Still, the veteran netminder's numbers are the best he's put up since 2019-20 when he was with St. Louis and registered a 2.15 GAA. If he can continue to perform well, he could grab a few starts away from Jacob Markstrom -- though he is unlikely to ever take over as the No. 1 option.

Devils' Jake Allen: On wrong end of shutout
Jake Allen stopped 26 of 27 shots in Sunday's 1-0 loss to the Sharks.Allen was good, but Mackenzie Blackwood was better, posting a 44-save shutout against his former team. This was the fourth time in six outings Allen has allowed one goal or fewer, so he's a bit unlucky to be 3-2-1 on the year. He's added a 2.35 GAA and a .914 save percentage. He will continue to serve as backup to Jacob Markstrom, but it looks like Allen will play slightly more often than just in back-to-back sets -- he hasn't gone more than three games without an appearance.

Devils' Jake Allen: Posts 31-save shutout
Jake Allen stopped 31 shots en route to a shutout in Monday's 3-0 win over the Oilers.Allen delivered an impressive outing, which is something he desperately needed after conceding a combined 12 goals on 67 shots over his previous two appearances. Allen's been all over the place in the early going -- in addition to those two rough starts, he also posted a 20-save shutout against Utah on Oct. 14 and stopped 17 of 18 shots en route to a 3-1 win over Buffalo on Oct. 5. He should continue to operate as Jacob Markstrom's backup, meaning he won't see steady work between the pipes any time soon. After Allen's previous shutout, he still warmed the bench for New Jersey's subsequent three games, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the New Jersey Devils go back to Markstrom for Thursday's home tilt against Montreal.

Devils' Jake Allen: Gets starting nod Monday
Jake Allen will be between the road pipes versus Edmonton on Monday, New Jersey Devils play-by-play announcer Matt Loughlin reports.Allen is coming off a pair of disappointing outings in which he conceded a combined 12 goals on 67 shots (.821 save percentage). For now, the Devils will likely let Allen work through any issues since he shouldn't see a ton of work behind Jacob Markstrom, but the team could eventually decide to recall Nico Daws from the minors if Allen's numbers don't improve.

Devils' Jake Allen: Loses in overtime
Jake Allen stopped 26 of 30 shots in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.Allen has allowed 12 goals over his last two outings after giving up just one tally across his first two starts. The New Jersey Devils have had the busiest schedule of any team so far, which may explain their shaky defense over the last week. Allen is firmly in the backup role behind Jacob Markstrom, and the former is likely to be on the bench when the Devils host the Ducks on Sunday.

Devils' Jake Allen: Night to forget
Jake Allen allowed eight goals on 37 shots Tuesday in an 8-5 loss to the Lightning.What's there to say? The game was tight in the first, but the wheels fell off the team in the second. They picked it up a bit in the third, but it wasn't enough. This was a sleep on it and let it go night for Allen. He can't win them all.
