If Monty stays this consistent throughout his upcoming contract, you just may have your goalie for the rebuild? All he does is get better and is competitive as (frank)!

And I may be the minority here, but I don’t get the Jake Allen hate?

He has stolen games for us in the past. And as an older man/player…..you can’t stay as ready and as pliable as a Monty or Primeau.

Jake is a great goalie, and even better teammate and and even better man.

I understand Hughes’ approach to trading Allen and keeping him and showing respect.

We may be frustrated with carrying 3 goalies right now. But this type of player treatment will go a long way to enticing players here to a more modern approach to the game all around

don't kid yourself, if Hughes haven't trade Allen it's because he didn't receive any offers.

I don't hate Allen either, he has been an effective backup for us for years.

yes, agreed 100% on Allen, I'm sure hadn't it been for the 3-goalie thing he would've looked much better. he's helped the team way more than he's hurt it overall.

Absolutely! and what do we really have to lose this season by carrying the three?

I might argue Primeau’s development?? But creating an internal competition mag have driven that from a different vantage point?

Either way, the rhetoric out there regarding Allen is unfair, unwarranted, obtuse and frankly unwanted.

He has a (frank)ing ring!! Regardless. You can’t take that away from him.

If you had a team full of Jake Allen’s nobody would ever get traded

if you're gonna complain that a player is doing well, you might as well stop watching the games for the rest of the season imho.

It was merely one small complaint..

What if Hughes holds Allen in higher regard than you and many other fans??

Ever think of that? I, for one, would NOT give Allen away for scraps.

But we all have our opinions

well considering MTL isn't necessarily a prime destination for players around the league, giving such veterans respect like that isn't a horrible idea.
