This is absolutely the right decision, but the veteran Jake Allen will unfortunately still have to be patient.

«Samuel Montembeault will defend the goal against the Bruins.» - Montreal Canadiens
Martin St-Louis is treating him more and more like the team's #1 goalie and we love it. It's absolutely deserved!
The player, who is the 5th best goalie in the NHL according to advanced statistics, has a record of 10-6-4 this season, with an average of 2.85 goals allowed per game and an efficiency rate of 0.910.
Samuel Montembeault will now face David Pastrnak and the Bruins, live from Boston. A good challenge for him!
As for Jake Allen, he's had only three tiny starts for over a month. (since December 18)
Do you believe it's really time to trade him?
