Cam Talbot started Monday night and the backup goalie is also likely to be in net for one of the Rangers’ back-to-back games this weekend.

But make no mistake, November will be all about Henrik Lundqvist for the Rangers.

The defense corps is decimated right now through injuries to captain Ryan McDonagh, Kevin Klein and Dan Boyle and, an incredibly ill-timed five-game suspension for John Moore.

So the Rangers need their franchise goalie to keep the points coming, probably steal some games as the Rangers are two games into a grueling stretch of 15 in 29 days.
