Cam Talbot News: Has Leafs' number again

Talbot made 38 saves on 40 shots in a 3-2 win over Toronto on Monday.

Talbot put up an all-world effort Monday after notching a 6-3, 20-save victory over the Maple Leafs on Saturday night. He's played back-to-back games after newly-acquired John Gibson coughed up five goals on 13 shots in a 5-1 loss to the Canadiens on Thursday. Talbot made two of his best saves on Auston Matthews at 5:17 of the third. He stopped Matthews' first shot from the left dot, and then he denied AM34 with a left pad save on the rebound. Talbot sees himself as good enough to platoon with Gibson; right now, the Red Wings will play the hot hand.
