Jake Allen Gets Starting Nod vs. Columbus After 42-Save Shutout

New Jersey Devils goaltender Jake Allen will get the starting nod at home versus Columbus on Monday. This follows his impressive 42-save shutout victory over the Sabres on Friday, marking his eighth win of the year. The 35-year-old backstop, who serves as the No. 2 option behind Jacob Markstrom, is projected to play 25-30 games this season and secure around 15 wins. He is also expected to be in net for an upcoming back-to-back against the Golden Knights and Bruins.
