Bringing back Talbot on a favourable contract and spending the money elsewhere to overhaul the team makes sense to me. If Markstrom signs for $7M is that money worth it over Talbot at $3.5 or $4M?

Yeah I really do think it is worth it.
Hell, I’d ship off Rittich and pay Markstrom $7M and Talbot $4M. That would take goaltending depth from poor to elite. Regular season split, and then Markstrom takes over in the playoffs.
...that said, without getting a #1 centre there’s no reason do it so meh. The days of going with these cheap, weak tandems have to end.
