Wild attempting to solve Allen, Blues (Yahoo Sports)

While steadfastly refusing to reveal his team's lineup prior to game day, per normal practice, St. Louis Blues coach Mike Yeo joked that goalie Jake Allen might get the start for his team in Game 2 of Friday's first-round playoff series at the Minnesota Wild. "Marty does a real good job with that, too -- helping him prepare and put the last one behind him and focus on the next one," Yeo said. All Allen did in the opener of the best-of-seven series with the Wild is pretty much single-handedly give his team a 1-0 lead in the series, stopping 51 shots and holding off the home team long enough for his team to find a way to win in overtime.
