Similarly I would have viewed either goal as soft if it had gotten through, or if Talbot hadn't read the play well.

Yep .. the best defense is to let the opposition in with the puck on their forehand with no one between them and the goalie because the goalie should make those saves all the time.
Interesting defense strategy... Ranks up there with Cherry's don't block the shots because 1 out of 50 will get deflected on the net.
I think you are bringing on bad Karma by under valuing Talbot.
PS. Must have been an extremely boring game if these 4 easy saves were all they could find to put on a 3 minute recap.
