Actually if you go over there a lot of fans are cool on them trading for Talbot (for the same reasons we should be) having lived through the scenario of a backup goaltender looking really good behind a cup contender and crashing down to earth as a starter on a bad team. Most of them would be pretty happy if the Flames swooped in on him actually.
I'm okay with a forking over a 2nd round pick (essentially Baertschi) for this guy but anything more is poor asset management IMO as this guy isn't proven at all and it's almost like they don't have any faith that they have anything close to a starter in their system.
