-Has been injured lately
-Is likely to be overpaid. Cap space is like gold.
-Will likely get too much term, especially for his age
-Talbot put up better numbers than Markstrom this year. Plus his career stats are much better. Plus he's a lot cheaper.
-The 2021 free agency has several good goalies
-Sounds like there is a bidding war
-The Flames aren't contenders anyways and shouldn't be giving big contracts to older players
I feel like I have to say this every damn day

30 for a goaltender is not old.
