Talbot, on balance, provided the Kings relatively consistent results in regular season.
He had moment of high end results - also some uneven play - but the Kings are a playoff team and Talbot posted a respectable 2.50 GAA / .913 save percentage in 54GP
In his final ten game segment, Talbot was average. His results - .890 % / 2.86 GAA
Big in the net. Veteran. Capable of making routine saves. Not the kind of goalie who gets too active / scrambles / has the ability to make desperation stops moving laterally. At his best when absorbing pucks from distance / squaring up and playing between his posts / keeping his game composed and simple.
Talbot will be called upon to be the LA Kings best player in playoffs - if they have sights on upsetting opponents.
