Goaltending wasn't the issue, until it was.
Against Winnipeg Talbot was great, and maybe our MVP.
Against Dallas, he was good-great overall with some really rough moments. while the team didn't defend well enough as well.
Game 1: 2 stoppable goals from far out, the 2nd especially was awful. Flames win anyways.
Game 2: .861 from Talbot. Mostly not his fault, a couple rebounds he'd maybe like back but the 3rd Dallas goal was a terrible shortside shot from the boards.
Game 3: Shutout.
Game 4: 5 against again, but probably only the 1st goal was on Talbot as a bad rebound goal while swimming.
Game 5: Great overall, except the winner was one he'd like back from the point.
Game 6: Yeah...
Hard not to think Markstrom in for Talbot gets us another win or 2 with nothing else different.
