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.
Bernier allowed a single goal on 27 shots in the Leafs’ 4-1 win over Detroit on Saturday. After an ugly game vs. the Preds, Bernier has settled in, winning his last two starts while stopping 52 of 55 (.946 SV%). However, he makes for a risky start tonight in Pittsburgh.
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.

Bernier is not on the ice for the Maple Leafs morning skate, which suggests he will start tonight vs. Detroit. He had a nice bounce-back game on Thursday, stopping 26 of 28 shots in a 5-2 win over the Lightning. It has been a crazy up-and-down first quarter of the season for Bernier, but he was great in his first outing vs. the Wings—he stopped 31 of 32 shots in a 1-0 OT loss.
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.

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.
Bernier was yanked on Tuesday after giving up three goals on 12 shots in the Leafs’ embarrassing 9-2 loss to Nashville. It won’t be easy for him to bounce back with the Lightning’s hot offence in town.
Hamilton missed practice on Wednesday, but is back on the ice this morning which is a good sign that he will be available on Friday.
Bernier did not take part in the Maple Leafs’ optional morning skate which suggests he will get the nod tonight vs. Tampa Bay.

Bernier stopped 38 of 40 shots in the Maple Leafs’ 2-1 loss to the Penguins on Friday. Bernier is 2-1-1 with a 2.48 GAA and .926 SV% in his last four starts and draws a nice matchup tonight against the Predators, who he has a 1.91 GAA and .933 SV% in 10 career starts against.
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.
Follow the situation closely if you're relying on Palat but it appears he will play.
Bernier gets the tougher of the back-to-back starts as Reimer is expected to go tomorrow vs. Buffalo.
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.
Bernier allowed four goals on 35 shots in the Maple Leafs’ loss to the Rangers on Saturday. He was given Sunday night off, but will be back between the pipes tonight vs. the Bruins. In his first start against Boston he gave up four goals on 25 shots in a 4-1 defeat.
Bernier allowed three goals on 34 shots in the Maple Leafs shootout loss to the Avalanche on Thursday. It has been an OK start to the year for Bernier, who has a 2.59 GAA and .916 SV%, but just three wins to show for it. He will face the Rangers tonight—he stopped 11 of 12 shots in a 6-3 win after replacing an injured James Reimer on October 12th.
Bernier stopped 28 of 29 shots in the Maple Leafs win over the Blue Jackets last Friday. He was given the last two games off, but will be back in the crease tonight having won three of his last four. Tonight, he faces an Avs team who rank 23rd in the NHL in scoring (2.36 G/PG).
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.
