Allen (concussion) is doubtful to play Saturday against visiting Nashville, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Per Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette, Canadiens head coach Dominique Ducharme said there was only a "slight chance" that Allen would be ready. In this case, "slight chance" and "doubtful" mean the same thing. Saturday would mark the fourth straight game Allen has missed with the concussion. Cayden Primeau and Samuel Montembeault figure to hold down the Canadiens' crease while Allen and Carey Price (knee) remain out.
