Allen is fine, don't mind him as a backup. But people like James Nichols claiming he should be playing over Markstrom are out of their minds.

Can Mercer PLEASE JUST NOT BE ON THE PK ANYMORE?!?! I get trying to rest other guys, but he's just not good. I swear it feels like most of our PK goals against have him out there. Constantly fails to clear the puck and hardly ever wins puck battles. So ready to move on from him.

I still think we can win this game, but I don't know if we will with this shit bag Jake Allen.

I'm sorry for all I said about Markstrom. We need more Markstrom, unfortunately.

Allen is not reliable. Just because he was reliable for a handful of games before his balloon burst earlier this year.

He's been mediocre for much of his career.

He's fine as a very sheltered backup.

I'm confident we've seen his best work as a Devil already.

I'm not saying he'll never have good games here again, but a good streak like before the last Washington game? Nah.
