4 DAYS AGO • NHL.COM

Strong performance against Caps Talbot turned aside 31 of 33 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over Washington.

Impact Ethen Frank was able to solve Talbot twice Sunday, but other than that, no other Capitals skater was able to get a puck past the Detroit netminder. Talbot is now 10-6-2 with an .887 save percentage and a 3.00 GAA through 19 appearances this season. The 38-year-old and John Gibson have alternated starts recently, and if that trend continues, Gibson will likely be in goal for the last game before the three-day holiday break against the Stars on Tuesday.

Starting rematch with Caps Talbot led the team out for warmups and will start Sunday's battle with the Red Wings, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Impact After Logan Thompson and John Gibson started Saturday's game, both teams will be switching goaltenders for the second game of the back-to-back, home-and-home set between Detroit and Washington. The 38-year-old Talbot has lost six straight starts, allowing three goals or more in all but one of those contests. Despite the dry spell, he still carries a 9-6-2 record into the game but with a 3.07 GAA and an .883 save percentage.

Gets little help in loss Talbot made 24 saves in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Mammoth.

Impact The veteran netminder couldn't do much on any of the pucks that got past him, most of which came from in close as Utah forwards went unmarked around the crease to clean up rebounds and pounce on loose pucks. Talbot hasn't gotten into the win column since Nov. 22, going 0-4-2 over his last six starts with an ugly 3.81 GAA and .853 save percentage.

Expected to start Wednesday Talbot is set to start at home against Utah on Wednesday, according to Kara Wolfbauer of ESPN.

Impact Talbot has a 9-5-2 record, 3.02 GAA and .885 save percentage in 17 appearances in 2025-26. He's searching for his first win since Nov. 22 -- Talbot is 0-3-2 with a 3.77 GAA and an .852 save percentage since his last victory. His upcoming adversary has been struggling too. After getting off to an 8-2-0 start, Utah has gone 8-14-3 across its past 25 games.

Falls to Oilers Talbot gave up three goals on 28 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Talbot was fine in this outing, but he still took a fifth straight loss. The 38-year-old netminder has given up 19 goals in that span. For the season, he's at a 9-5-2 record with a 3.01 GAA and an .885 save percentage over 17 appearances. Neither Talbot nor John Gibson has run away with the starting job, but Gibson has the momentum currently. The Red Wings' next game is in Chicago on Saturday, but a back-to-back next week -- at home versus the Islanders on Tuesday and against the Mammoth on Wednesday -- should allow Talbot to get another start in short order.

Tending twine in Edmonton Talbot will start on the road versus the Oilers on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Talbot is 0-2-2 with 16 goals allowed over his last four games. That skid has allowed John Gibson to claim a larger share of playing time recently. Talbot will have a tough time ending his skid against the Oilers, who have 18 goals over their last three games.

Gives up five goals Talbot stopped 26 of 31 shots in Thursday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Talbot continues to play regularly between the pipes for a struggling Red Wings defense, but his performances haven't exactly helped the cause. Talbot has gone winless in his last four appearances, going 0-2-2 with a 3.94 GAA and an ,838 save percentage over that stretch.

Impact Talbot has lost his last three outings, giving up 11 goals on 68 shots in that 0-2-1 span. The 38-year-old will look to right the ship against Columbus, who has 16 goals scored while going 2-1-3 over the last six games.

Makes 17 saves Talbot stopped 17 of 19 shots in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Bruins.

Impact Talbot returned to the lineup after resting in the 6-3 loss to the Lightning on Friday, but he still lost for a third straight outing. This negative stretch comes after a four-game winning run between Nov. 13 and Nov. 22. Talbot should continue as the Red Wings' undisputed starter, but it's hard to trust him right now due to the inconsistencies he's showing on a game-to-game basis.

Between pipes Saturday Talbot will patrol the visiting crease in Boston on Friday, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.

Impact Talbot has floundered his last two starts, allowing nine goals on 48 shots in a pair of losses. He had strung four straight wins prior to his current cold streak, giving him a 9-4-0 with a 2.97 GAA and an .887 save percentage across 14 appearances. The Bruins are generating 3.04 goals per game, 18th in the NHL.

Starting to waver Talbot allowed five goals on 28 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Predators. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact This was Talbot's second loss in a row, and he's allowed 12 goals over his last three outings. He's started five of the last six games, so it's possible he's struggling after sharing the crease with John Gibson for much of the first month of the season. Talbot is down to a 9-4-0 record with a 2.97 GAA and an .887 save percentage over 14 appearances (12 starts). Both Talbot and Gibson should get a start in the next two games, as the Red Wings host the Lightning on Friday before visiting the Bruins on Saturday.

Receiving starting nod Talbot will protect the home goal versus the Predators on Wednesday, Michael Whitaker of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Talbot saw a four-game winning streak snapped versus the Devils on Monday, as he allowed four goals on 20 shots in the loss. The Predators are a far less intimidating matchup, as they've scored just 12 goals over their last six games, going 1-5-0 in that span.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Early struggles in loss Talbot stopped 15 shots on 19 attempts in Monday's 4-3 loss to New Jersey.

Impact Despite playing relatively well down the stretch, Talbot surrendered three goals in the final eight minutes of the first period. With the loss, the 38-year-old netminder has a 9-3-0 record with a 2.78 GAA and an .892 save percentage through 13 appearances this season. Monday's loss ended his four-game win streak, where he had allowed just seven goals. With the Red Wings currently occupying a playoff spot in the Atlantic Division, Talbot should continue to find the win column barring a full-team collapse. If he can stay healthy, the 13-year NHL veteran goaltender should contend for the 20-win mark for his third straight season, making him a solid fantasy option in most two-goalie formats. After making two consecutive starts, the Red Wings may look to John Gibson Wednesday before Talbot potentially grabs his next start Friday against Tampa Bay.

Facing Devils Talbot will defend the road net against New Jersey on Monday, per Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News.

NOVEMBER 22 • NHL.COM

Nabs fourth straight win in OT Talbot stopped 31 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact The veteran netminder allowed a goal in each regulation period as the Red Wings fell behind 3-1, but a late rally capped by Alex DeBrincat's winner 1:50 into the extra frame gave Talbot his fourth straight win. Talbot has allowed just seven goals on 86 shots (.919 save percentage) during his win streak, as he makes a case to emerge from a timeshare with John Gibson and lock down the top job in the Detroit crease.
