Faces only three shots in preseason debut Allen stopped all three shots he faced in Monday's 3-2 preseason win over the Rangers.

Impact Allen played the first period of Monday's contest before giving way to Nico Daws for the rest of the game. Unless the Devils bring in another netminder at some point during the 2026-27 season, Allen should receive the bulk of the starts for a team that is expected to return to the postseason after missing out in 2025-26.

He posted a 17-17-2 record with one shutout, a 2.74 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 37 appearances during the 2025-26 regular season.

Earns win vs. Detroit Allen stopped 25 of 28 shots in Saturday's win over the Red Wings.

Impact Allen might have earned the win here, but he continues to be an underwhelming fantasy performer, as this was his third straight game in which he posted a save percentage below the .900 mark. Allen will remain as the Devils' No. 1 goaltender after Jakob Markstrom (undisclosed) was shut down for the final three games of the regular season. However, Nico Daws has been announced as the starter for Sunday's game against Ottawa, lining up Allen to start in the regular-season finale against the Bruins on Tuesday.
