I would have preferred Kadri obviously, but I don't get the hate personally given the regular season we had. A few minor tweaks makes sense to me. There's been non stop bitching about this team not defending one another well enough and Lucic certainly brings that, and Talbot seems like one of just a couple options as a cheaper tandem option given Rittich's development. Coaching staff has familiarity with both as well.

Im pretty sure lucic refused to fight and stand up for his teammates last year. He doesn't really do much of that anymore. He mostly just yaps and takes penalties for stick infractions
