Talbot will take the crease for the second half of the Kings' back-to-back as they head to Vegas on Thursday. The 36-year-old signed a one-year contract in the offseason and has been worth every penny as he has posted a 14-6-2 record, 2.06 GAA and .925 SV%. He will take on the ice cold Vegas Golden Knights, who have lost four straight games but are still 11th in the NHL in goals per game (3.33).

Talbot will return to the Kings' starters crease after backing up last game as he takes on Seattle Wednesday. The 36-year-old signed a one-year, $1 million contract in the offseason which has payed off fruitfully for the Kings as Talbot has been one of the leagues best goaltenders with his 13-5-2 record, .926 SV% and 2.02 GAA. He will host the Seattle Kraken Wednesday, who have lost two straight games and are struggling to score being 28th in the NHL in goals per game (2.7).

Talbot has been used between the pipes much more sparingly lately but will return to the crease for the fourth time in the last seven games when the Kings visit the Montreal Canadiens. The Kings have won eight of their last nine (8-1-0) and are significant -208 road favourites against a Canadiens team they defeated 4-0 two weeks ago with Phoenix Copley as their goaltender. Talbot has been a steadying presence for the Kings all season and has an outstanding .945 SV% over his past 10 games (8-2-0).

Talbot took the loss in a 2-1 defeat at the hands of the Capitals on Wednesday despite facing just 15 shots. It snapped a personal three-game winning streak for Talbot, and he'll be eager to get back in the win column against the Avalanche on Sunday. The 36-year-old has been a pleasant surprise for the Kings this season, registering a .928 SV% and a 10-4-1 record in his first season in Los Angeles. He and the Kings are slight home favourites (-135) against Colorado on Sunday.

Talbot will start for the Kings on Wednesday and should be well rested, having only played once in the last 10 days, a 29-save performance (.935 SV%) in a 5-2 win over the Anaheim Ducks. Talbot was a workhorse to start the season but could be used more conservatively moving forward as backup goalie Phoenix Copley has had consecutive strong performances, indicating he has refound his game after a poor start. In 14 games this season (10-3-1), Talbot has been among the league's best goaltenders, posting a tremendous 2.02 GAA and .931 SV%. The Kings are sizeable -203 home favourites against a Washington Capitals team that ranks 31st in the league offensively (2.33 GF / GP) and has been outscored 7-1 in their last two games (0-2-0).
