Despite a strong start, Jake Allen's play of late has not been good. While it's not entirely on him, there is some concern about potential regression.
The New Jersey Devils are 9-4-0 through 13 games. At one point, they had rattled off an eight-game winning streak after dropping the season opener. A significant part of the early success was attributed to the brilliant play of backup goalie Jake Allen. When Jacob Markstrom was injured back on October 13th, it was up to Allen to carry the bulk of the load.
