Allen showed he can carry the load.

What load? You mean play off load? When was that?

He and Elliott are about the same goalies. Allen played well enough in the playoffs to show he can carry the load about the same as Elliott.

Against Minn the prior season he fell apart.

Against the Sharks, one decent game and one not.

His whole pro career in juniors/ahl was a playoff mess.

He has never matched up "about the same" to Elliott's best playoff level.

They are loving the trade in Calgary as they should, we shipped the wrong guy out there. Of course, I doubt Calgary would have taken Allen.
