Jake Allen looks like he will make his first start of the season Monday night in Edmonton as the Montreal Canadiens take on the Oilers at Rogers Place.
The Canadiens start a four-game week Monday in Edmonton before three games in Vancouver against the Canucks. Two of those games are back-to-back games, so we can expect Allen and Carey Price to alternate the team’s games this week.
Allen took to practice in the starter’s net during the team’s morning skate. He was acquired from the St. Louis Blues this off-season and then signed a two-year contract extension with the team.
