Allen starts in goal on Wednesday.

Allen stopped 36 of 38 shots in the Blues’ 3-2 shootout win over the Wild on Saturday. He has won three of his last four with a 2.78 GAA and .901 SV%. Tonight’s will be special for the 24-year-old, who will have future Hall of Famer Martin Brodeur as his backup. He draws a tough matchup, but catches a break with Antti Raanta getting the start for Chicago.

Allen gets the start vs. Minnesota.

Allen stopped 13 of 16 shots in a win over the Oilers last night. It was not the prettiest outing but he got the job done. With Brian Elliott out it is no surprise to see Allen start the back-to-back. Tonight should be a little more difficult in Minnesota.

Allen starts vs. Edmonton.

Allen stopped 15 of 17 shots in relief of the injured Brian Elliott in Tuesday’s shootout loss to the Senators. With Elliott out for at least a few weeks, the crease is all Allen’s for the foreseeable future. He has a 2.12 GAA and .920 SV% in nine games and is a must-start tonight vs. the struggling Oilers.

Jake Allen
Allen starts vs. the Jets.

Allen allowed four goals on 30 shots in the Blues’ 4-1 loss to Montreal on Thursday. The loss snapped Allen’s four-game winning streak, but he should be for great spot-start this afternoon in Winnipeg. Allen is 2-1-0 with a 1.67 GAA and .938 SV% on the road.

Dillon is expected to make his Sharks debut on Saturday.

Dillon was acquired from the Stars on Friday and despite his equipment not making it to San Jose this morning, he is expected to play tonight vs. the Coyotes. Dillon’s defence partner will likely be fluid for a while until the coaches can decide where he fits best.

Brenden Dillon
The Sharks have acquired Brenden Dillon from Dallas for Jason Demers and a 2016 third round pick.

Dillon, 24, is a big-boy at 6-foot-3, 225 lbs. and bring some size and physicality to the Sharks blueline. Demers is a better puck-moving defenseman, but Dillon is two years younger and the Sharks have a number of young offensive blueliners in their system. Dillon will be a restricted free agent at the end of the season.

Allen starts on Thursday vs. Montreal.

Allen stopped 22 of 25 shots in a win over the Predators last Thursday. He has been great when called upon this season, winning five of six starts with a 1.67 GAA and .933 SV%. He is a must-start when he gets the nod, but draws a tough matchup against a Montreal team who hold the best record in the NHL.

Allen will start in goal for the Blues on Thursday.

Allen gave up three goal on 27 shots in the Blues' 4-3 win over the Devils last Thursday. Allen has been nothing short of spectacular to start 2014-15---he is 4-1-0 with a 1.40 GAA and .944 SV%. Allen is as big of a goalie prospect as there is and deserves to be trusted at home vs. Nashville.

Allen gets the start for the Blues on Thursday.

Allen stopped all 26 shots that he faced in the Blues 1-0 win over the Devils on Tuesday. He has stopped all 50 of the shots that he has faced in his last two starts and should make for a good start tonight as he takes on the Devils again, this time in St. Louis.

Allen becomes the second rookie in Blues history to record back-to-back shutouts.

Allen stopped all 26 shots that he faced in the Blues 1-0 win over the Devils last night. He was coming off of a 24-save shutout vs. the Ducks on October 30th. He joins Ernie Wakely as the only other Blues rookie to post consecutive shutouts, Wakely did it way back in 1970. The way Allen is playing, he is going to force coach Hitchcock to give him starts. He is only owned in 41 percent of Yahoo leagues.

Allen starts for the Blues on Tuesday.

Allen stopped all 24 shots that he faced in the Blues 2-0 win over the Ducks last Thursday. Allen has gone 2-1-0 with a 1.34 GAA and .944 SV% in three starts this season. Brian Elliott has been great as well, but Allen is forcing the Blues to play him. Tonight, he faces a Devils team who have won three of their last four.

Allen will be between the pipes for the Blues on Thursday.

Allen surrendered three goals on 22 shots in a 4-1 loss to Vancouver last Thursday. It was Allen's first loss of the season and he now sits at 1-1-0 with a 2.01 GAA and .915 SV%. The Blues team defense will help both Allen and Brian Elliott's numbers all season. He draws a tough matchup vs. the Ducks, but the Blues should be able to slow them down.

Allen draws the start vs. Vancouver on Thursday.

Allen allowed a single goal on 25 shots in a win over the Coyotes last Saturday. Tonight will mark his second start of the year as the Blues have split the starts 70/30 in Brian Elliott's favour. Tonight he will face a Canucks team who were shelled by the Stars on Tuesday. Allen will continue to carve our a larger role if he plays well.

Tatar (head) will not play in the final two preseason games, but should be ready for regular season opener.

Tatar was injured on Wednesday but passed the concussion test and is not suffering from any headaches, which is a great sign for the 23-year-old. Expect him to be in the lineup on October 9th and push for 20-plus goals this season.

Tomas Tatar
The Stars have signed RFA Brenden Dillon to a one-year deal worth $1.25 million.

Dillon, 23, had six goals and 11 assists in 2013-14. The 6-foot-3, 225 lbs. defensemen led the Stars in hits last season with 168 and finished second in blocked shots (149). Dillon will once again play 20-plus minutes a night, but his fantasy value is limited due to his lack of power-play time.
