Devils' Jake Allen: Takes loss in relief

Allen made 23 saves in relief Thursday's 8-4 loss to Tampa Bay. He allowed five goals.

The Devils have been horrible lately, losing six of their past seven games and five consecutive at home. Allen is 1-5-0 in his last five starts. The win was by shutout, but three of those losses had at least five goals go past. You cannot have Allen or Jacob Markstrom in your net until they regain their bearings.
