In a press conference earlier today, veteran Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jake Allen made a very mature statement that speaks volumes about his character.
Allen didn't beat around the bush in admitting that he is currently going through a very tough time.
He made his mea culpa after today's team practice.
"I know I need to give more, and I'm capable of doing it. Obviously, it's more difficult for me. But I feel like I've been solid in the last five games, and that's what I'm focusing on.»
