When Talbot was in Calgary I felt he was exposed as a be big goalie that didn't have a whole lot of athleticism. Top shooters picked him apart in the shooting zones.

I don't think he takes you anywhere.

Markstrom ... was great against Dallas and they don't win that series without that level of goaltending. Then against Edmonton not so much ...

Will be interesting.
