Major development for Jake Allen: The Canadiens' goalie is expected to change teams, according to Frank Seravalli
There's some significant development on the New Jersey front. The general manager of the team just made a strong statement, and the arrival of a new goaltender is almost certain by Friday.
"`Our goaltending has not been good enough,'' Fitzgerald said as he confirms his efforts in upgrading there before Friday's deadline (although could also be a summer trade)" - Via Pierre LeBrun
Obviously, it didn't take much for rumors to start circulating about Jake Allen. The goaltender could bring some leadership and stability in front of their net.
According to Frank Seravalli, if a goaltender is likely to change teams by Friday, it's Jake Allen.
"Frank Seravalli believes that if a goaltender changes teams by March 8th, it's Jake Allen."
This isn't the first time Jake Allen has been linked to the Devils, and it might finally materialize. Certainly, his contractual situation poses a problem, but the Devils seem at a crossroads after such a statement from their GM.
