    • Torched for six more goals
      Talbot allowed six goals on 40 shots in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Talbot has given up a total of 16 tallies over three games in the first round, so he's lucky the Kings are only down 2-1 in the series. The 36-year-old's play has been lackluster, but he's not getting a ton of help from his defense. Game 4 is Sunday, but it's unclear if the Kings will stick with Talbot much longer if he continues to struggle, which could open the door for David Rittich to get a look.

    • Set to start Friday
      Talbot is expected to start at home against Edmonton in Game 3 on Friday, per Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period.

      Advice: Talbot has struggled against the Oilers, allowing 10 goals on 75 shots (.867 save percentage) over two playoff contests. Edmonton ranked fourth offensively with 3.56 goals per game in the regular season, so the Oilers are likely to continue to give the veteran goaltender trouble, especially because Talbot's been floundering for a while now. He has a 2.92 GAA and an .897 save percentage over his past 17 outings dating back to March 7. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:40 am
       
    • Prevails in Game 2
      Talbot stopped 27 of 31 shots in a 5-4 overtime win over the Oilers in Wednesday's Game 2.

      Advice: Talbot had another rough game, but the Kings were able to play a little bit better and snag the win with Anze Kopitar's tally 2:07 into the extra session. With 10 goals allowed over two playoff contests, Talbot has had his hands full with a dangerous Oilers offense so far. The series is tied at 1-1 heading to Los Angeles, where Talbot went 13-10-3 with a 2.56 GAA and a .910 save percentage during the regular season, slightly worse than his numbers on the road. Game 3 is Friday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:46 pm
