I bet the guy that recommend Talbot to BT is the same guy that recommended Brower and Neal. He hasnt watched a game since 2016

Not liking Tkachuk-Lindy-Mangiapane. They just cycle until they lose the puck and don't generate a lot. The later in particular looks overslotted.

Best thing about Cam Talbot is that his contract expires June 30.

Thankfully he "bet on himself" but unfortunately for him, he lost.

Pretty sure we'd get the same quality from any of the guys in the AHL at this point.

You actually think he got better offers after the year he had with the Oilers?

Anyway, he has had some good games with no goal support, so I wouldn't crap on him just yet. Though it is a little telling he doesn't get a lot of starts.

Rumour is that he had multi-year offers at a lower AAV.

Regardless, he's had some really bad starts. I will be unhappy if he's extended.

His stats are average and he's had a few wasted efforts when the team gave him 0 run support. He isn't worth 2.75 but he has hardly been a problem this year.

Looking at gillies since getting it together for the final 2 months of last season he has a .919 save% and 2.5 gaa behind a pretty thin D with us graduating our top guys he might give us an option

Sounds like bias. Mangiapane leads the team in 5v5 goals and is only one 5v5 point back of Tkachuk and Monahan despite having logged 90 - 100 fewer minutes than either guy.

If there's an issue with the line it's down the middle. Lindholm's not bad defensively but he doesn't really create individually.

Personally the lines I'd be wanting to do would be

Gaudreau - Bennett - Tkachuk
Mangiapane - Lindholm - Monahan
Dube - Backlund - Ryan
Lucic - Jankowski - Rieder

Holy **** what is wrong with Francis and Krahn?
Trade for Kassian, Gaudreau traded, Hamonic extended and Talbot #1. Ugh. All those ideas are horrific.

Francis has such a yap. He's hated Johnny for awhile and lost it on him last ploffs. Guy just sucks.

And wtf Krahn thinks Talbot overtakes Rittich?

He’s shooting at 16%. I doubt he’s a better shooter than Monahan, Gaudreau, tkachuk...
