This is about giving up two highly valuable second round picks, if not more, for a goaltender who comes from a system that routinely makes goaltenders look better than they are, and would in your view be effectively a stop-gap goalie. Netminders of Cam Talbot's pedigree can be found about anywhere, and Glen Sather is looking to make a sucker out of someone.
