Talbot made 16 saves in a 4-3 overtime loss to Toronto on Thursday.
Talbot finished the season with a 21-19-5 record, two shutouts, a 2.93 GAA and a .901 save percentage. That's a far cry from the previous year when he went 27-20-6 with a 2.50 GAA and .913 save percentage with the Kings. Sometimes the system really does make the man. Talbot has one more year on his contract, but he'll be 38 heading into next season, and the sunset is approaching on his career.

Red Wings' Cam Talbot: Poor performance Saturday
Rotowire
Talbot allowed five goals on 35 shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.

Red Wings' Cam Talbot: Takes tough loss Monday
Rotowire
Talbot turned aside 21 shots in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Senators.
Detroit outshot Ottawa 49-23 on the night, but Linus Ullmark stood on his head in the other crease while Talbot got beaten twice while his side was shorthanded.

With the Wings now trying to find playing time for Petr Mrazek in addition to Talbot and Alex Lyon, the situation between the pipes in Detroit looks very murky.
