He made 34 saves, including a late penalty shot stop against Owen Beck. The offense was led by Jesper Bratt and Jack Hughes, each contributing a goal and an assist, while Paul Cotter and Luke Hughes added to the scoreline. With this victory, New Jersey capitalized on Montreal's struggles, marking the Canadiens' seventh loss in their last eight games.

Montreal's Sam Montembeault faced 22 shots, but the team couldn't find the net against Allen's stellar performance. Key moments included Allen's critical saves against Cole Caufield and Josh Anderson, which highlighted his dominance. Bratt's continued success, extending his point streak to eight games, showcased New Jersey's offensive depth.
