Still, coach DJ Smith didn't officially name Anton Forsberg as the starter, so fantasy players will have to wait until warmups to see who is going to guard the crease. For his part, the 35-year-old Talbot is 3-2-0 with a 3.06 GAA in his last five outings and should see the bulk of the workload over Forsberg when available. None

The Senators' next two games are in a home-and-home set versus the Rangers on Wednesday and Friday with the first game in Ottawa. None

Nov. 5, 2022 Talbot made 26 saves in a 2-1 loss to the Flyers on Saturday. - It was his first start of the season. Talbot should help the Sens find the win column soon now that his rib injury has healed. They have lost five straight.

While the 34-year-old netminder may have to watch Marc-Andre Fleury start Game 1 of the postseason, coach Dean Evason will likely be quick to give Talbot a look if needed. None
April 21, 2022 Talbot will be between the pipes for Thursday's home clash with Vancouver, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports. - Talbot will make consecutive starts for the first time since Marc-Andre Fleury was acquired at the deadline, which shouldn't be a complete surprise considering the 34-year-old Talbot is coming off a 26-save shutout performance versus the Habs on Tuesday. At this point, it remains unclear who might start Game 1 of the postseason and it's possible the coaching staff hasn't decided either. None
April 19, 2022 Talbot will guard the road goal during Tuesday's matchup with the Canadiens, Anthony LaPanta of Fox Sports North reports. - Talbot struggled in his last start Saturday against St. Louis, surrendering six goals on 30 shots en route to a 6-5 overtime defeat. He'll try to shake off that poor performance and return to the win column in a favorable road matchup with a Montreal team that's 10-23-4 at home this year. None
April 16, 2022 Talbot will tend the twine on the road versus the Blues on Saturday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot will get the first game of the Wild's back-to-back, which likely means Marc-Andre Fleury will protect the crease versus San Jose on Sunday. For his part, the 34-year-old Talbot is undefeated in regulation in 13 straight contests, during which he is 10-0-2 with a 2.33 GAA. At this point, the Wild should be expected to continue alternating between Talbot and Fleury, though who gets the nod for Game 1 of the playoffs likely remains up in the air. None
April 12, 2022 Talbot will defend the blue paint during Tuesday's home game versus the Oilers, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot wasn't great in his last start Friday against St. Louis, surrendering four goals on 28 shots en route to a 4-3 defeat. He'll try to shake off that poor performance and return to the win column in a home matchup with a hot Edmonton team that's won six of its last seven contests. None
April 8, 2022 Talbot allowed four goals on 28 shots in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues. - The Wild took a 3-1 lead early in the third period, but Talbot couldn't make it stick. The 34-year-old has had some mixed results since he started sharing the crease with Marc-Andre Fleury -- Talbot is 3-0-2 with 13 goals allowed across his last five starts. He's at 28-12-3 with a 2.81 GAA and a .911 save percentage in 44 appearances overall. Talbot will likely serve as backup Sunday versus the Kings, as head coach Dean Evason has strictly alternated his goalies over the last two weeks. None
April 7, 2022 Talbot is expected to get the starting nod Friday in St. Louis, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. - Talbot is 9-1-1 over his last 12 outings with a 2.35 GAA during that span. Since the Wild acquired Marc-Andre Fleury, the two netminders have alternated starts and it seems like that trend will continue at least during the regular season. Talbot is sporting a .912 save percentage with a 28-12-2 record this season. He lost to the Blues on Jan. 1, coughing up six goals on 28 shots. None
April 3, 2022 Talbot stopped 25 of 26 shots in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Capitals. - Talbot saw his seven-game winning streak end Thursday in an overtime loss to the Penguins, but his performance Sunday assured he wouldn't enter a skid. The Wild had all the offense they needed within the first two minutes of the game. Talbot is up to 28-12-2 with a 2.78 GAA and a .912 save percentage through 43 appearances. He'll likely continue to split starts with Marc-Andre Fleury for the remainder of the season. None
April 2, 2022 Talbot will start between the pipes in Sunday's road game versus the Capitals, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot wasn't great in his last start Thursday versus the Penguins, surrendering four goals on 39 shots en route to a 4-3 overtime loss. He'll try to get back in the win column in a road matchup with a Washington team that's 16-14-5 at home this year. None
April 1, 2022 Talbot allowed four goals on 39 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Penguins. - After letting in three goals in the first 30 minutes of game action, Talbot managed to hold the Penguins off the board for the remainder of regulation, allowing Minnesota to erase a two-goal deficit to force overtime. He couldn't keep it going in the extra session, as Evgeni Malkin won it for the visitors. This was only the second game Talbot has dropped beyond regulation, and he's added 27 wins and 12 regulation losses. None
March 30, 2022 Talbot will tend the twine for Thursday's home clash with Pittsburgh, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports. - It's a bit of a surprise that the Wild aren't going to give Marc-Andre Fleury the nod against his former club, though he has been gone from Pittsburgh for three years now. While Fleury will likely see the bulk of the workload heading into the playoffs, Talbot should still get plenty of opportunities, especially considering he is riding an eight-game winning streak during which he posted a 2.13 GAA and one shutout. None
March 24, 2022 Talbot stopped 26 of 28 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canucks. - Talbot performed solidly in this contest, earning his sixth straight win. The 34-year-old improved to 26-12-1 with a 2.82 GAA and a .910 save percentage in 40 appearances.

March 23, 2022 Talbot will be between the pipes at home versus Vancouver on Thursday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports. - Talbot is riding a six-game winning streak during which he posted a 2.17 GAA and .917 save percentage. Despite the 34-year-old netminder's recent run of form, the team still acquired Marc-Andre Fleury at the deadline which will almost certainly limit Talbot's opportunities to play and make him a mid-range fantasy option the rest of the way. None
March 22, 2022 Talbot turned aside all 28 shots he faced in Monday's 3-0 win over the Golden Knights. - The Wild traded for Marc-Andre Fleury at the deadline, but Talbot made it clear just hours later he wasn't going to give up the No. 1 job without a fight by recording his second shutout of the season. The 34-year-old netminder has won six straight starts, posting a 2.17 GAA and .917 save percentage over that stretch, and Minnesota coach Dean Evason could have a nice problem on his hands trying to juggle Talbot and Fleury. None
March 18, 2022 Talbot will start Saturday against visiting Chicago, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot will set his sights on his fifth straight victory, which is somewhat remarkable considering his .890 save percentage over that span. He'll be opposed by the Blackhawks, who've struggled to an 11-15-4 record and currently sit 25th in the league standings. None
March 17, 2022 Talbot made 24 saves in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Bruins. - Minnesota carried the play for most of the night, and while Talbot couldn't do much on the two Boston goals he got enough support to pick up his fourth straight win. On the season, the 34-year-old netminder has a less than impressive 2.97 GAA and .907 save percentage, but his 23 wins rank just outside the top 10 in the league. None
March 16, 2022 Talbot will get the starting nod at home versus the Bruins on Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot is undefeated in his last four appearances with a 3-0-0 record despite a 3.18 GAA and .880 save percentage. In his 10 career matchups with the Bruins, the veteran netminder is 6-4-0 along with a .914 save percentage. With backup Kaapo Kahkonen continuing to struggle, Talbot may have to carry an even heavier workload down the stretch. None
March 10, 2022 Talbot will patrol the crease Thursday in Detroit, per Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. - Talbot will make his second consecutive start Thursday. The 24-year-old has gone 21-12-1 with a 2.95 GAA and .908 save percentage over 35 appearances this season. At home, Detroit has posted a 16-12-3 record while averaging 3.19 goals for and 30.3 shots on goal, ranking 11th and 23rd, respectively. None
March 8, 2022 Talbot will defend the cage Tuesday against the visiting Rangers, per Jessi Pierce of NHL.com. - Talbot has posted a 5-4-0 record with a 2.93 GAA and .903 save percentage over his last 10 appearances.

On the road, the Rangers have gone 17-10-2 while averaging 27.4 shots on goal and 2.76 goals for, ranking 30th and 20th, respectively. None
March 3, 2022 Talbot will get the starting nod on the road versus the Flyers on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot remains bogged down in a four-game losing streak during which he has given up a combined 17 goals on 124 shots (.863 save percentage). It's the second time this year that the netminder has dropped four games in a row which was followed by an extended injury absence. WIth the WIld entering a back-to-back, fantasy players can likely expect to see Kaapo Kahkonen between the pipes versus Buffalo on Friday. None
March 2, 2022 Talbot made 22 saves on 26 shots in a 5-1 loss to the Flames on Tuesday. - Talbot went down early and never quite recovered, ceding a pair of goals on the power play against the white-hot (no pun intended) offense of the Flames. The 34-year-old netminder has allowed four or more goals in each of his last four starts, all resulting in losses, a streak preceded by four wins. None
Feb. 28, 2022 Talbot will patrol the crease Tuesday against visiting Calgary, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports Monday. - Talbot has posted a 2-3-0 record with a 3.06 GAA and .910 save percentage over his last five starts. Calgary defeated Minnesota 7-3 in their first meeting Saturday, but Talbot did not make an appearance. On the road, the Flames have earned a 16-10-2 record alongside averages of 3.29 goals for and 36.3 shots on goal. None
Feb. 23, 2022 Talbot stopped 30 of 34 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Ottawa. - Minnesota never led in this one and failed to tie it up after Thomas Chabot put Ottawa ahead 4-3 with his second goal against Talbot. The veteran goalie has dropped three consecutive starts while allowing four-plus goals in each. If Talbot continues to struggle, Kaapo Kahkonen could emerge as the clear starter in net for the Wild. None
Feb. 22, 2022 Talbot will defend the cage for Tuesday's road tilt versus the Senators, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot conceded a combined nine goals on 64 shots (.859 save percentage) in his last two outings. The veteran netminder figures to continue splitting the workload with Kaapo Kahkonen but could get a few extra starts compared to the youngster. With just one more victory, Talbot will reach the 20-win mark for the first time since 2017-18 when he was with the Oilers. None
Feb. 18, 2022 Talbot allowed four goals on 33 shots in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Panthers. The last two goals were empty-netters. - Talbot has now allowed nine goals on 63 shots in his last two games, both losses, though the Jets and Panthers are solid offenses to face. It's a little concerning for fantasy managers to see Talbot struggling -- Kaapo Kahkonen has been solid when called upon this season and could vulture more starts in the near future. Talbot has a 19-10-1 record with a 2.91 GAA and a .911 save percentage in 30 appearances. The Wild begin a road trip in Canada on Sunday when they visit the resurgent Oilers. None
Feb. 16, 2022 Talbot gave up five goals on 30 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Jets. Winnipeg's sixth goal was an empty-netter. - Talbot kept the Jets off the scoresheet in the opening frame, but Mark Scheifele beat him twice in the second and again early in the third, opening the floodgates for Winnipeg's offense. The five goals Talbot allowed in this one matched the total he gave up over his four-game winning streak coming in, so plug him in with confidence next time Talbot gets the call over Kaapo Kahkonen. None
Feb. 15, 2022 Talbot received the starting nod for Wednesday's road game versus Winnipeg, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports Tuesday. - Talbot has a 1.36 GAA with .955 save percentage over his current four-game win streak. The 34-year-old stopped 30 of 31 shots en route to a 7-1 victory over Winnipeg on Nov. 26. The Jets have averaged 3.10 goals for and 33.3 shots on goal at home this season, ranking 15th and 11th, respectively. None
Feb. 12, 2022 Talbot stopped 37 of 39 shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Hurricanes. - A low-scoring game through two periods came alive in the third, but Talbot was able to keep the Hurricanes at bay. He earned his fourth straight win in the process, and he's allowed just five goals in that span. The 34-year-old is up to 19-8-1 with a 2.78 GAA and a .915 save percentage in 28 appearances. He's alternated starts with Kaapo Kahkonen recently, as both of the Wild's goalies are playing well. If that pattern holds, Talbot's next start would be Wednesday versus the Jets. None
Feb. 11, 2022 Talbot will defend the home cage during Saturday's clash with Carolina, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot was unbeatable in his last start Feb. 2 against Chicago, stopping all 30 shots he faced en route to a 5-0 victory. The 34-year-old netminder will try to extend his personal winning streak to four games in a tough home matchup with a Hurricanes squad that's averaging 3.42 goals per game on the road this year, fourth in the NHL. None
Feb. 2, 2022 Talbot posted a 30-save shutout in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Blackhawks. - Talbot stretched his winning streak to three games with the clear performance Wednesday. It was his first shutout of the season and the 25th of his NHL career. The 34-year-old improved to 18-8-1 with a 2.81 GAA and a .913 save percentage. While he hasn't always been consistent in 2021-22, the shutout should give him some momentum going into the All-Star break as Talbot attempts to fend off Kaapo Kahkonen's challenge for playing time. None
Feb. 1, 2022 Talbot will defend the cage against Chicago on the road Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot picked up wins in each of his previous two outings coming off a lower-body issue but was given the night off against the Islanders on Sunday. With no back-to-backs on the schedule in February, the Wild will still likely find a game or two to give to Kaapo Kahkonen but the bulk of the workload should continue to go to Talbot heading into the second half of the season. None
Jan. 29, 2022 Talbot made 25 saves on 27 shots in a 3-2 win over the Rangers on Friday. - Talbot has provided two quality outings since returning from injury (lower body). The veteran netminder has certainly had his struggles this season, and with Kaapo Kahkonen doing well in Talbot's absence, a time share seems likely. But allowing just three goals across his last two starts is a way for Talbot to continue to be worth rostering for fantasy managers. None
Jan. 28, 2022 Talbot (lower body) will get the starting nod on the road against the Rangers on Friday, Kevin Gorg of Bally Sports North reports. - Talbot will be between the pipes after suffering a minor lower-body injury against Montreal on Monday. The 34-year-old netminder will likely split the workload with Kakko Kahkonen moving forward after the youngster thrived while Talbot was on the shelf due to injury. None
Jan. 26, 2022 Talbot (lower body) returned to practice Wednesday and hasn't been ruled out for the Wild's upcoming matchup with the Rangers on Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Considering how well Kaapo Kahkonen has played of late, 5-0-1 in his last eight outings, the club will be in no hurry to rush Talbot back into the crease. As such, fantasy players shouldn't be surprised if the veteran is held back until Sunday's clash with the Islanders. None
Jan. 24, 2022 Talbot will get the starting nod at home versus the Canadiens on Monday, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. - Talbot will make his first appearance between the pipes since Jan. 1 versus the Blues. Prior to getting hurt, the 34-year-old netminder was mired in a four-game losing streak in which he posted a disastrous 5.29 GAA and .855 save percentage. With youngster Kaapo Kahkonen having stepped up in Talbot's absence, the veteran may have to settle for a split share of the crease moving forward. None
Jan. 21, 2022 Talbot (lower body) could return to action Saturday versus the Blackhawks, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot won't play Friday against Chicago, but he'll participate in the contest's pregame skate, and if he's able to make it through without issue, he could be healthy enough to back up or perhaps even start Saturday versus the Blackhawks. With Talbot still on the shelf, Kaapo Kahkonen will start in goal Friday. None
Jan. 19, 2022 Talbot (lower body) could return to the ice Friday or Saturday versus Chicago, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - The goalie has missed four games with a lower-body injury, which he suffered Jan. 1.

Jan. 14, 2022 Talbot (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Friday's game against Anaheim. - Talbot will miss a third straight contest Friday, and the Wild have yet to release an expected timetable for his return. Kaapo Kahkonen will continue to operate as Minnesota's No. 1 netminder until Talbot is cleared to play. None
Jan. 8, 2022 Talbot (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Capitals. - With Talbot sidelined with a lower-body issue, Kaapo Kahkonen should be considered the likely starter against Washington. The Wild are off until Friday versus Anaheim after Saturday's contest, so Talbot should have a good shot at returning to action against the Ducks. None
Jan. 3, 2022 Talbot (lower body) will not be available against the Bruins on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot is stuck in a four-game losing streak during which he posted a 0-3-1 record and 5.29 GAA. With the veteran netminder sidelined, Kappo Kahkonen figures to get the starting nod versus Boston while Andrew Hammond should be elevated to the active roster. Even once cleared to play, Talbot may find himself watching from the bench given his recent run of poor form. None
Jan. 1, 2022 Talbot led the Wild onto the ice, indicating he'll start Saturday's home game versus the Blues, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports. - Talbot will look to snap a three-game losing streak outdoors as the Wild host the Blues at Target Field for the Winter Classic. During his skid, Talbot allowed 13 goals on 103 shots, but he should be well-rested, as the Wild's last game was Dec. 20. None
Dec. 24, 2021 Talbot and the Wild will not face the Jets on Monday due to COVID-19 postponements. - Talbot is 0-2-1 over his last three outings, allowing 13 goals on 103 shots during that span. Minnesota's next game is scheduled for Jan. 1 against the Blues. None
Dec. 20, 2021 Talbot will be between the pipes on the road versus Dallas on Monday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot is coming off back-to-back losses for just the second time this season and will no doubt be eager to rebound against the Stars. With the game cancelations, the WIld won't play again until after the Christmas break, so Talbot figures to continue carrying a heavy workload moving forward. None
Dec. 17, 2021 Talbot and the Wild will not play Saturday, as the NHL has postponed the Panthers' next three games due to COVID-19 concerns. - Minnesota's next scheduled game is in Dallas on Monday. In his last seven appearances, Talbot is 6-1-0 with a fantastic .937 save percentage and 2.25 GAA. None
Dec. 16, 2021 Talbot will start against the visiting Sabres on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot was torched by the Golden Knights his last time out Sunday against Vegas, allowing five goals on 35 shots in a 6-4 loss. However, he'd rattled off six consecutive victories prior to that while posting a sparking .950 save percentage and 1.79 GAA, so his recent form suggests he makes for a great play Thursday. None
Dec. 14, 2021 Talbot will start Tuesday's home game versus the Hurricanes, Jessi Pierce of The Athletic reports. - Talbot will seek to bounce back against the Hurricanes after giving up five goals to the Golden Knights. The 34-year-old hasn't lost a home game since November. He has recorded a 2.94 GAA and .902 save percentage when at home this season. None
Dec. 12, 2021 Talbot gave up five goals on 35 shots in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Golden Knights. - Talbot only had one chance to protect a lead in the contest, but Zach Whitecloud retied the game at 3-3 early in the second period. The 34-year-old Talbot has often had better games this season -- it's safe to say this was a rare misstep from the goalie. His six-game winning streak ended, and he's now 15-6-0 with a 2.71 GAA and a .917 save percentage through 21 contests. The Wild return home Tuesday to face the Hurricanes in another tough matchup between top teams. None
Dec. 11, 2021 Talbot will start Sunday's road game versus the Golden Knights, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot will get the second half of a back-to-back after Kaapo Kahkonen faces the Kings on Saturday.

Dec. 4, 2021 Talbot will protect the home goal Saturday versus the Maple Leafs, Jessi Pierce of The Athletic reports. - Talbot backed up Kaapo Kahkonen in the Wild's last two games against the Coyotes and the Devils, but the former will make his return to the crease. He should be well-rested, and he'll need to be sharp in a battle between two of the league's hottest teams. Both teams have won five straight entering Saturday, with the Maple Leafs having scored a staggering 26 goals during their surge. None
Nov. 28, 2021 Talbot is the starting goalie for Sunday's game against the Lightning, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot won both of his last two starts while stopping 70 of 73 shots in that span. His 2.75 GAA and .913 save percentage will be tested in a tough matchup against Tampa Bay. None

Nov. 24, 2021 Talbot made 40 saves in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout win over the Devils. - This one got more complicated than it needed to be for Talbot, as he allowed New Jersey to erase the Wild's 2-0 third-period lead, with the tying goal coming with 1:07 remaining in regulation. All's well that ends well, though, and that was the case for Talbot here, as he managed to refocus and stopped everything he saw from that point forward, including all three of New Jersey's shootout attempts. Talbot hasn't allowed fewer than two goals in a game since limiting the Ducks to one in the season opener, but that hasn't precluded him from posting an impressive 10-5-0 record. None
Nov. 23, 2021 Talbot -- who gave up four goals on 36 shots against the Panthers on Saturday -- will be back between the pipes on the road versus New Jersey on Wednesday, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. - After a strong start to the season, Talbot has been inconsistent at best, as he is 2-3-0 with a 3.13 GAA in his last five outings. The veteran netminder did get the night off Sunday, as Kakko Kahkonen took the second game of a back-to-back, so Talbot should be well-rested heading into Wednesday's matchup. None
Nov. 20, 2021 Talbot will start between the pipes in Saturday's road matchup with the Panthers, Michael Russo of The Athletic report. - Talbot was sharp in his last start Thursday against the Stars, turning aside 36 of 38 shots en route to a cushy 7-2 victory.

None

Nov. 13, 2021 Talbot will patrol the crease during Saturday's road game versus the Kraken, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot was pretty solid in his last start Thursday versus Vegas, stopping 32 of 35 shots, but he ultimately suffered his third loss of the season due to insufficient goal support from his teammates.

Nov. 11, 2021 Talbot gave up three goals on 35 shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights. - The Golden Knights' fourth line beat Talbot twice in the first period, and Jonathan Marchessault added the back-breaker late in the second.

He should be favored to start Saturday's road-trip finale against the Kraken. None
Nov. 10, 2021 Talbot will patrol the crease during Thursday's road game versus the Golden Knights, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Talbot has been a little shaky of late, having posted a sub-par 3.89 GAA and .881 save percentage through his last two starts, but he's picked up back-to-back wins over that span thanks to strong goal support from his teammates. The 34-year-old backstop will attempt to secure his eighth victory of the season in a road matchup with a Vegas team that's averaging 2.67 goals per game at home this campaign, 23rd in the NHL. None
Nov. 6, 2021 Talbot made 35 saves in a 5-4 shootout win over Pittsburgh on Saturday. - His team forced overtime with a goal with 2.2 seconds left and Talbot on the bench. He then returned the favor and preserved the game in OT when he stopped Jason Zucker on a breakaway with just 53 seconds left.

Oct. 21, 2017 Talbot turned aside 22 shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Flyers. It was a second straight solid performance on the road - following a 30-save win at Chicago - after an ugly three-game skid during which he was pulled twice.

April 23, 2017 Talbot made 27 saves as the Oilers advanced to the second round of the playoffs with a 3-1 victory in Game 6 over the Sharks on Saturday night. He started all six games and posted a 2.03 GAA while stopping 153 of 165 shots.
April 21, 2017 Talbot stopped 27 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over San Jose as the Oilers took a 3-2 lead in their first-round series.

The fans there will surely be all over him if he gives up a quick goal in Game 6 as the series heads back to northern California.
April 19, 2017 Talbot was pulled in the second period Tuesday after allowing five goals on 24 shots, and Edmonton went on to lose 7-0 to the Sharks in Game 4. This was a stunning turn after Talbot blanked San Jose in the previous two games, but he didn't sound the least bit shaken. ''It's already forgotten in my mind,'' Talbot said. ''I've had some time to let it go already. Just go through my process and let it go and be ready Thursday.''

April 17, 2017 Talbot posted his second straight shutout with a 23-save effort in Game 3 of the Oilers' opening-round playoff series with San Jose. Talbot has proven to be more than up to the challenge in his first postseason series as a regular goaltender, as he's turned aside 80 of 83 shots to help Edmonton grab a 2-1 series lead. He'll enter Tuesday's Game 4 with a scoreless streak of 120 consecutive minutes.
April 15, 2017 Talbot stopped all 16 shots he faced to help the Oilers even their first-round series with San Jose with Friday's 2-0 win. The goaltender also had an assist on Connor McDavid's short-handed goal in the third period. The 29-year-old has performed well so far in his first playoff series as a starter, turning aside 57 of 60 shots while posting a 1.46 goals-against average. Talbot owns a 1.95 GAA in five career starts at San Jose's SAP Center, where the series resumes Sunday night.
April 9, 2017 Talbot came up with 29 saves to help Edmonton to Saturday's 3-2 victory over Vancouver, which clinched home-ice advantage for the Oilers' opening-round playoff series. Talbot won't be in the crease for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Canucks, so he finishes a solid 2016-17 campaign with a franchise-record 42 wins and a 2.39 goals-against average. He'll enter his first postseason series as a starter 5-1-0 with a 2.33 GAA over his last six assignments.
April 7, 2017 Talbot needed to make just 13 saves to record his franchise-record 41st win of the season in Thursday's 4-2 victory at San Jose.

It will be interesting to see how he fares next week in his first-ever playoff series.
April 5, 2017 Talbot stopped just 21 of 26 shots in Tuesday's loss at Los Angeles. This continued the Talbot's recent trend of playing so much worse on the road than at home. He's won seven straight in Edmonton behind a 1.42 GAA, but Talbot is 1-4-0 with a 4.10 GAA in his last six road games. The Oilers close with a home-and-home against the Canucks, a team Talbot has shut out twice this season. He's 5-0-4 with a 1.61 GAA lifetime versus Vancouver.
March 31, 2017 Talbot stopped 38 shots in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Sharks. Talbot won a sixth straight home start, a span in which he's posted a .960 save percentage.
March 29, 2017 Talbot made 34 saves as Edmonton officially earned a postseason berth for the first time in 11 years with a 2-1 home victory over Los Angeles on Tuesday night. It was an encouraging performance for Oilers fans after Talbot - given the night off Saturday in Los Angeles' previous game - had been pulled in back-to-back starts. However, both of those games were on the road, and the Oilers' next two games are at home, where Talbot has won five straight starts behind a 1.20 GAA.
March 24, 2017 Talbot was pulled for the second straight game Thursday, allowing four goals on 15 shots through two periods. Talbot was starting for a second straight night, having given up four goals in less than two periods at Anaheim on Wednesday. In his previous two starts, however, he shut out the Canucks and Kings. He's made a league-leading 67 starts, so it's possible Talbot is a bit worn down at this point.
March 23, 2017 Talbot gave up four goals on 18 shots before being pulled midway through the second period in Wednesday's 4-3 loss in Anaheim. Talbot had been coming off two straight shutouts before getting yanked mid-game for just the second time all season. Starting his 13th game in a row, Talbot seemed a step slow from the start. Edmonton next plays a home-and-home set with Colorado, a team which he's faced three times and has allowed there goals in each.
March 21, 2017 Talbot made 35 saves Monday, posting his second consecutive shutout as the Oilers beat the Los Angeles Kings 2-0. It was his seventh shutout of the season, one off the league lead and the most by an Oilers goalie since Tommy Salo in 2001-02. Talbot, who is 6-2-1 with a 1.77 GAA in his last nine games, made his NHL-high 65th start. "I think the more I play, the better I feel and the more confident I get," he said.
March 19, 2017 Talbot made 33 saves for his sixth shutout of the season and the Oilers topped the Canucks 2-0 on Saturday night. Talbot appeared in his 11th straight game and "was great, as he is most nights," said Oilers star Connor McDavid. The netminder, who notched his 36th win, has gone 5-2-1 with a 1.99 GAA in his last eight starts.

March 8, 2017 Talbot stopped 23 of 26 shots in Tuesday's loss to the Islanders. Talbot has faced an average of just 26 shots over his last five starts, posting an awful .892 save percentage in that span. He appears to be a bad play if he starts Edmonton's next game Friday at home versus Pittsburgh. Talbot has a 3.66 GAA in his last six home starts and gave up four goals earlier this season against the Penguins - the league's highest-scoring team - in his first career start against them.
March 1, 2017 Talbot made 25 saves to lead the Edmonton Oilers to a 2-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday night. Talbot, making his league-best 57th start of the season, snapped a two-game losing streak. ''He's been amazing for us,'' Oilers captain Connor McDavid said. ''I don't really know how to explain how much he means to our group.
Feb. 25, 2017 Talbot made 23 saves in Friday's 2-1 loss at Washington. Despite having a personal four-game winning streak snapped, Talbot had a solid performance against arguably the league's most dangerous offense. He has a .931 save percentage in his last five starts.

Feb. 15, 2017 Talbot bounced back with a 23-save effort in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Arizona. Talbot, pulled three nights earlier against Chicago, improved to 3-1-1 with a 1.78 GAA against the Coyotes this season but won't see them again until next season. He potentially has another favorable matchup Thursday when Edmonton hosts the Flyers, a team he's shut out in three of his five career starts.
Feb. 12, 2017 Talbot was pulled after two periods Saturday, stopping just 16 of 20 shots in a loss to Chicago. Talbot had allowed just four goals combined in his first three starts of the month.
Feb. 5, 2017 Talbot halted a personal three-game losing streak by registering his fifth shutout of the season in Sunday's 1-0 shootout win at Montreal. The Edmonton netminder made 22 saves before thwarting all three chances he faced in the deciding phase. Talbot, who's now tied for third in the NHL with 27 wins, continues to do his part to keep the rising Oilers in the hunt for a Pacific Division title. The 29-year-old owns an excellent 1.66 goals-against average and a .938 save percentage over an 11-game stretch in which he's 7-3-1.
Feb. 1, 2017 Talbot was pulled in the second period Tuesday after giving up four goals on 19 shots in a 5-1 loss to Minnesota. Talbot's return from the All-Star break was a rough one, especially after he had gone 6-0-1 with a 1.37 GAA in his previous seven starts. However, he wasn't necessarily to blame for the bad outing. "You can add up the distance from the net of all their goals put together, and I don't think it goes from the goal line to the blue line. That's not on the goaltender, that's the five-man unit in the D-zone," Oilers winger Milan Lucic said.
Jan. 27, 2017 Talbot made 32 saves in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Sharks. The All-Star break might not be coming at an ideal time for the red-hot Talbot, who is 6-0-1 with a 1.37 GAA in his last seven starts. He's had only one regulation loss in his last 14 road starts.
Jan. 26, 2017 Talbot turned aside 26 shots in Wednesday's 4-0 win in Anaheim. It was the fourth shutout of the season but the first in two months for Talbot, who is 5-0-1 with a 1.43 GAA and .946 save percentage in his last six starts.
Jan. 21, 2017 Talbot made 42 saves through regulation and overtime Friday but allowed Nashville to score on both of its shootout attempts as Edmonton lost 3-2. Talbot is 4-0-1 with a 1.71 goals-against average and .936 save percentage in his last five starts.

Talbot has a 3.51 goals-against average in two games, but much like Grant Fuhr in the Oilers' glory days, the goaltender doesn't need to be outstanding because of the offensive talent the team has.

Feb. 26, 2016 Talbot had 34 saves in Thursday's 2-1 loss at Los Angeles. Talbot fell to 1-7-0 over his last eight starts and has a 3.38 GAA through his last nine appearances, so he's still not a recommended option.
Feb. 21, 2016 Talbot made 26 saves Saturday. Talbot has allowed 10 goals in a three-game slide.

Feb. 3, 2016 Talbot stopped 36-of-37 shots to help Edmonton defeat Columbus Tuesday night. Edmonton's No. 1 goaltender has been quite good over the past month, as he's posted an excellent 1.76 GAA and .940 save percentage over his last nine starts.

2024-04-19 analysis Talbot has gone 3-3-0 with 16 goals allowed over six contests in April. The 36-year-old is likely getting the start Thursday since the Kings need a win to have a chance at the No. 3 seed in the Pacific Division. Talbot figures to be the Kings' starter in the postseason as well, and he'll have a favorable matchup Thursday to potentially grab positive momentum. Talbot got the win, but it wasn't pretty. The Kings melted down early in the third period, only to salvage it with a Viktor Arvidsson equalizer with 1:21 left in regulation and Adrian Kempe's game-winner six seconds into overtime. The win set up the third consecutive year of a Kings-Oilers first-round matchup in the playoffs. Talbot ends the regular season 27-20-6 with a 2.50 GAA and a .913 save p
2024-04-19 update Talbot will protect the home goal versus the Blackhawks on Thursday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports. Talbot stopped nine of 13 shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

He's been remarkably consistent since mid-February. For now, Thursday's .842 save percentage should be treated as a deviation rather than a new norm. Talbot will start his third game in a row, and he enters the contest on a four-game winning streak. During that hot stretch, he has given up a total of seven goals, though he'll have his hands full with the Oilers' ever-dangerous offense Thursday.
