Allard made a strong start to the season, earning a place on Team Canada’s roster for the World Junior Championships. However, his performance leveled upon his return from the tournament.
He excels at skating and has good speed, enabling him to effectively forecheck, apply pressure to opponents, and create opportunities. He approaches each forecheck methodically, providing support during offensive rushes and positioning himself strategically. His smooth transitioning and direct playing style make him a valuable asset on the ice.
I think Allard has an average hockey IQ. His main problem arises when he is the recipient of a play, and his difficulties are occasionally noticeable.
He is a strong all-around player, performing well in forechecking and attacking the center of the ice. He is also effective in penalty-killing situations. He might be a worthwhile choice as an older player selected late in the draft, potentially offering value as a fourth-line player.
