Talbot stopped 23 of 24 shots in the Oilers win over the Rangers on Saturday afternoon. it was Talbot’s first win of the season and first win of his career versus his former team.

Talbot will start Thursday in Boston.

Talbot allowed four goals on 26 shots in the Oilers loss in New Jersey last Saturday. It was a rough start to the year for Talbot and the Oilers, but they will look to improve tonight in Boston. The Bruins are one of the toughest opponents in the NHL, making Talbot a risky starting option on a busy night in the NHL.

Gibson will start Monday vs. the Red Wings.

Gibson stopped all 41 shots that he faced in the Ducks shutout win over the Coyotes on Saturday. It was a terrible game for the Ducks, but Gibson absolutely stole two points for the road team. Gibson has been stellar to start the year, stopping 72 of 74 shots (.973 SV%) and is a must-start tonight vs. the Red Wings.

Talbot will start the Devils season opener against the Devils.

Talbot was excellent in 2017, but struggled to a 3.02 GAA and .908 SV% in 67 starts last year. Talbot is probably not as good as he was in 2017 or as bad as he was in 2018, making him a solid No.2 fantasy option. He is a decent option in Sweden as the Oilers take on the Devils.

Gibson will start the Ducks season opener in San Jose.

Gibson has been the best goalie in the NHL over the last three years, posting the league’s best SV% (.924) and GAA (2.26) while ranking third for third in shutouts (14). The Ducks have a stout bluleine that makes things easy on Gibson and he could be the best goalie in fantasy this season if he is able to start 60-plus games again.

Holl is projected to be the Maple Leafs’ seventh defenseman this season.
