Allen has been awesome since getting recalled. He is 4-0-0 with a 1.99 GAA and .933 SV% since coming up from Peoria. He has a tough matchup tomorrow against Anaheim.

Allen has won all three starts he has made since being recalled a couple of weeks ago to solidify the Blues goaltending. The 22-year-old has posted a 2.65 GAA and .913 SV% in those three starts. He has a decent matchup vs. a mediocre Coyotes team tonight.

Allen is 6-1 on the season with a 2.63 GAA and .903 SV% - outplaying last season's standout goalie tandem Halak and Elliott. No idea how long Hitch will ride the youngster but it could be safe to give up on Elliott - the lower performing goalie of the two - and hope that Halak gets reintroduced more down the stretch.

The Panthers - losers of 4 straight - desperately need a win but on the road in Boston will be a tough spot for them and Markstrom. Use your other options if you have them.

Tatar played well for the Red Wings posting four goals, three assists with a plus-4 in 18 games this season.

Allen has won each of his last two starts while allowing three goals in both contests. He will get the nod tonight against a Sharks team who have lost three in a row.

Markstrom appears to be the clear #1 goalie in Florida with Jose Theodore out with an injury. Markstrom is 1-3-0 with a 3.52 GAA and .889 SV% since Theodore got hurt. He has a solid matchup against the Lightning who have lost seven of their last eight.

Markstrom has lost each of his lsat two starts making him 1-2-0 with a 2.82 GAA and .902 SV% in his last three starts. He will be between the pipes against the Eastern Conference leading Montreal Canadiens tonight, not a great matchup.

Markstrom has lost each of his lsat two starts making him 1-2-0 with a 2.82 GAA and .902 SV% in his last three starts. He will likely be between the pipes against the Eastern Conference leading Montreal Canadiens tonight, not a great matchup.

Markstrom gave up two goals on the first two shots that he faced yesterday vs. Washington. He was pulled for Scott Clemmensen who didn't fair any better allowing five goals on 24 shots. Markstrom will start tonight vs. the Jets hoping for a better outcome than last night.

Allen allowed three goals on 26 shots but it was enough as the Blues poured in six goals on Mike Smith. With the win Allen is now 4-1-0 with a 2.69 GAA and .893 SV% this season. He has a decent matchup vs. an inconsistent Sharks team.

Markstrom will make his second consecutive start since Jose Theodore got hurt. He played very well in his last outing, allowing one goal on 31 shots vs. Winnipeg. He has a tougher test tonight against a Washington team that has won seven on their last 10 games.

The Blues’ save percentage, No. 1 in the NHL last season at .929, has fallen to No. 30 (.870) this year. With the recent goalie struggles the Blues have turned to rookie Jake Allen to get them back on track. Allen started four games while Halak was hurt and Elliott was struggling going 3-1-0 with a 2.62 GAA and .895 SV%. He has a solid matchup vs. the Coyotes tonight.

Blues GM Doug Armstrong did not confirm that Allen would start Thursday when the Blues travel to play Phoenix, saying, “Ken (Hitchcock) makes the lineup card, but I wanted to give him that opportunity. I just felt that when (Tuesday’s) game ended, we needed to look back on when we were having our most success, and what were some of the components, and Jake was one of those components. We think Jake has proven to be able to play at a high level over a short period of time.”

Markstrom will get the nod tonight for the Panthers and if he plays well will likely become the Panthers #1 with Jose Theodore out. He has a good chance to play well because the Jets aren't a great team but that being said, they have played well as of late. If Markstrom is available in your league he could make for a good start and could be worth keeping on your roster.

After Clemmensen was rocked coming in for Theo last night, Markstrom gets another shot at the big club. If Markstrom plays well, he should be picked up in deeper formats as the Panthers play 4 games next week and he could start at least 2.

Markstrom lost both of his starts and allowed 3 goals in both contests and posted a .915 SV%. The Panthers have two veteran netminders with Jose Theodore and Scott Clemmensen so that is likely why Markstrom is going back to the AHL. However it doesn't sound as if Markstrom will be in the AHL for long.

Markstrom made 37 saves on 40 shots against the Penguins in his only other start this season.

Markstrom will make his first NHL start of the season. He is a great goalie prospect and with the Panthers struggling they are going to give the young kid a shot. I would assume Markstrom is up for good unless he plays terribly. However it can't get much worse than it already is. I would avoid starting him vs. Pittsburgh though.
