from Jim Matheson at the Edmonton Sun,
Five-on-five, Talbot’s save percentage is .916, but it’s .829 on the penalty-kill, mostly because the players in front of him were so dreadful, especially at home, for weeks and weeks before turning it around.
“We’re about 90 per cent the last little while, but my play usually dictates the power play (success),” he said.
Talbot is his own worst critic, so you won’t find him tap-dancing around his play.
“Maybe I don’t have to steal games, but I have to give us a chance to win,” he said. “The difference this year and last is my consistency. I’ve had some good games but others I want back and I have to eliminate those ones.”
