Allen has a groin injury while Barron has an ankle injury that won't require surgery. Both are expected to be ready for training camp in the fall.

The 31-year-old Allen is 9-20-4 on the season with a 3.30 goals-against average and a .905 save percentage over 35 games with the Habs this season, his second in Montreal.

Barron, a 20-year-rookie, has one assist and one goal over just five games this season. 

Additionally, forward prospect Emil Heineman is in Montreal to receive treatment for an upper-body injury suffered while playing in Sweden.
