Talbot last took the crease on January 25th due to a lower-body injury but was perfect in that start, stopping all 14 of 14 New York Islander shots for the win. The 35-year-old's first season in Ottawa has not gone as planned, as shown by his 12-13-1 record, 2.90 GAA and .905 SV%. He will face one of the NHLs hottest teams in Carolina, who have won their last four games after a 4-1 win over St. Louis.
