Allen allowed two goals on 31 shots in the Blues’ win over the Sharks on Thursday. Allen has won his last two starts while stopping 52 of 55 shots (.946 SV%). He’ll get the nod against a surging Predators team—Nashville has won four of their last five while averaging 3.60 goals per game.
Bernier allowed one goal on nine shots after replacing John Gibson in the Ducks’ loss in Nashville on Saturday. Bernier has posted a 2.08 GAA and .934 SV% in six appearances this season. Tonight he makes for a safe spot-start against a Devils team that doesn’t score a lot of goals and will be even more hard-pressed without Taylor Hall and Mike Cammalleri in the lineup.
Markstrom allowed seven(!!!) goals on 25 shots in the Canucks’ loss to the Rangers on Tuesday. Despite a dreadful performance, Markstrom will start again on Thursday because Ryan Miller is sick. Markstrom should have an easier night against a Coyotes team that has lost four of five and played last night.

Allen was pulled after he allowed four goals on 12 shots in the Blues’ 8-4 loss in Columbus on Saturday. Allen has lost four of his last five starts while posting an ugly 4.05 GAA and .856 SV%. Despite the recent struggles, Allen draws a strong matchup tonight vs. Buffalo. The 26-year-old has gone 3-0-2 with a 1.18 GAA and .953 SV% at home this season.

After winning his first three starts, Markstrom has dropped his last three games (0-2-1) while posting a 2.63 GAA and .910 SV%. Markstrom is a risky start whenever he gets the call, but even more so tonight vs. the Rangers, who lead the NHL with 4.23 goals per game.
Markstrom allowed four goals on 34 shots in the Canucks’ loss to the Capitals on Saturday. Ryan Miller started last night, so Markstrom will go tonight in Ottawa. Markstrom has had a strong start to the year as the Canucks’ backup, but won’t get much in the way of goal support. Markstrom comes in with a 2.35 GAA and .913 SV%, but is a risky start on any given night.
Allen was yanked after allowing four goals on 20 shots in the Blues’ 5-0 loss in New York on Tuesday. It was Allen’s worst outing of the year, but head coach Ken Hitchcock will go right back to him tonight in Dallas. Allen has posted a 2.22 GAA and .910 SV% in eight starts and draws a good matchup against an injury ravaged Stars team.
Bernier has missed the last three games with an upper-body injury that he suffered on October 25th. Bernier will be available to start tonight, but head coach Randy Carlyle would not commit to his starting goalie. John Gibson posted a shutout last night, so they’ll probably see how he is feeling before they decide.
Allen stopped all 27 shots that he faced in the Blues’ shutout win over the Kings on Saturday. Allen finished the month of October with a 4-1-2 record, 1.83 GAA and .923 SV%.

He’ll be in tough tonight however, the Rangers lead the NHL in scoring with 3.89 goals per game.
