After being acquired before last week's trade deadline, Allen will make his Devils debut on Thursday night. Allen is currently sporting a .892 SV% and a career-worst 3.65 GAA through 21 games this season (6-12-3). The Devils enter action as +164 road underdogs against a Dallas Stars club that is 5-1-0 in their last six and is coming off a disappointing 4-3 loss to the Florida Panthers.

Willman last appeared for the Devils' on February 6th and has spent the last month and a week in Utica (AHL) but was recalled to meet the team in Dallas on Wednesday. The 29-year-old centre is in his first season in New Jersey and has a goal, an assist, 14 SOG, two PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 13 games played so far.

Siegenthaler exited Monday's 3-1 loss to the New York Rangers after playing only 11:24 time-on-ice. The 26-year-old defenseman appeared in 11 straight games after returning from a multi-week absence due to a foot injury earlier this season. He has nine points (1G / 8A), 68 hits, and 79 blocks in 49 games this season.

Hatakka played nine games with the Devils earlier this season, recording two assists, but has spent most of his season with the Utica Comets (AHL). The 23-year-old defenseman was a sixth-round pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft and has 17 points (4G / 13A) in 41 games with Utica this season.

Beckman played the last three games for Minnesota but will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday. The 22-year-old has one point (0G / 1A), four hits, and two blocks in three games.

After playing four straight for the Canadiens, Kovacevic has been a healthy scratch in the last three. He recorded one assist, a +4 plus/minus, and four hits in his last four outings.

Siegenthaler suffered the injury in the second period when he was struck by an elbow from the Rangers' Matt Rempe. Rempe was assessed a five minute major for elbowing and a game misconduct on the play. The Devils are yet to provide an update on the injury to Siegenthaler.

Foote last appeared in an NHL contest nearly a year ago on March 24th, 2023 but has been activated off non-roster, injured reserve on Monday. The 23-year-old left-winger originally suffered his injury in pre-season and has spent a week on a conditioning loan with Utica (AHL) before being activated.

Legare was the third-round pick (74th overall) of the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. The 23-year-old has yet to play an NHL game and has collected nine points (6G / 3A) in 39 games with the Laval Rocket (AHL) this season.

Speculation about the Devils acquiring a goalie all season was finally validated on Friday when they acquired Allen from the Montreal Canadiens for a conditional third-round pick that can become a second-round pick depending on games played. Allen is currently sporting a .892 SV% and a career-worst 3.65 GAA through 21 games this season (6-12-3).

Markstrom is set to make a fourth consecutive start on Thursday when the Flames travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Lightning. He saw a personal four-game losing streak come to an end in Monday's game against the Kraken, when he allowed four goals on 30 shots enroute to a 4-2 defeat. He owns a 21-16-2 record on the season to go along with a .912 SV%. He'll have his hands full again on Thursday as the Flames find themselves as +130 underdogs in Tampa.

Nemec was a healthy scratch for the Devils' previous game as Travis Green wanted him to have a "reset" but will draw back into New Jersey's lineup on Thursday vs. St. Louis. The 20-year-old rookie has made an impressive impact in his first season in New Jersey, with two goals, 16 points, 54 SOG, 16 PIMs and a -2 plus/minus through 40 games played this season.

The Devils, losers of three straight, will return to Daws between the pipes after unsuccessfully allowing Akira Schmid to prove himself in a 5-3 loss to the Florida Panthers on Tuesday. Daws has showcased horrendous performances in his last two outings (0-2-0), allowing eight goals on his last 27 shots (.704 SV%). That said, the Devils enter action as -151 home favourites against the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night.

With Marcus Johansson being placed on IR due to a lower-body injury, Beckman has been recalled from Iowa (AHL) and is expected to draw into the lineup on Thursday. Beckman was Minnesota's 75th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft but has been limited to only 12 career NHL games. In 48 games with the Iowa Wild, Beckman has 29 points (16G / 13A).
