Allen happy with Montembeault’s work

Allen also took the time to comment on the difficult situation in which Primeau found himself, having only played a few minutes during his recall.

“You have to remember that it is still in development. I remember being in his situation. I talk to him often enough to see how he feels and where he stands. I’m sure he’s a goalkeeper with a bright future.”

Allen is making $2.875 million this season. As of next year, his new contract will come into effect and his average salary per year will rise to $3.85 million, for a period of two years.
