Cam Talbot, the Detroit Red Wings' 37-year-old goaltender, is making a strong case for inclusion on Canada’s 4 Nations Faceoff roster. With a 12-season NHL career spanning eight teams, Talbot’s performance this season is cementing his reputation as a top contender for Canada’s national team.
Talbot leads Canadian goalies with a .920 save percentage, with .944 at even strength. Red Wings coach Derek Lalonde has voiced strong support for Talbot’s inclusion.
"Like, why not 'Talbs'?" Lalonde said (via NHL.com). "… I don't see why he would not be in that mix. "When (Talbot)egets his game in order, you know what you're getting, and if you can play the right way in front of him, it's going to be pretty consistent."
