Injury
Allen (flu) not expected to play on Tuesday.
Allen, who missed Monday’s practice with the flu, is not on the ice for the morning skate, so don’t expect him to be in the lineup tonight. Nathan Beaulieu will enter the lineup and skate with Tom Gilbert. Allen is day-to-day.
Line Change
Allen will make his Canadiens debut on Saturday.
Allen was acquired for Rene Bourque on Thursday and will be in the lineup tonight vs. the Bruins. Allen does not provide much in the way of offence, but he is a reliable blue liner who brings physicality and size to the Habs’ back-end. Allen is in the final year of a three-year deal.

Injury
Allen (lower-body) will be a game-time decision tonight.
