Honestly, this year he was a top 2-3 goalie and MVP of your team. It is strange that a team with an Art Ross winner would have a goalie for an MVP, but watching the Oilers all season, this was fairly evident.
It's a beautiful thing to have if it turns into a regular thing. Only time will tell and won't bother making a prediction as it's anyone's guess with goalies. However, if everyone on the Oilers stays the exact same next year, and Talbot is a top 10 goalie, they are a wildcard team. If he is top 20, they won't make the playoffs.
