With Talbot/Rittich/Smith/ all the previous goalies you could just feel an easy one could go in at any time and a one goal lead would never be enough, or that we’d end up playing from behind because of a weak one.
I would say he lost the game for us last night. He needed to make that save on Puljuarvi. When that went it, the way it did 26 seconds after the Flames had got themselves back in the game, it was game set and match.
