RDOilerfan wrote on Fri, 07 December 2018 09:31 | I am glad that Talbot played well last game or more correctly played like a good NHL goalie for a change. But in my opinion, I don't see how you can give Talbot the start because he hasn't earned it.
Before last game, he was credited with losing his last 5 startsin a row and actually if you look at his stats, it should have been lost his last 6 games in a row. He was the starter for the Colorado game on Nov 11 where he only played 25 mins, giving up 3 goals and got YANKED. Koskinen came in, played the remaining 35 mins, gave up 1 goal. The Oilers lost 4-1 and because Koskinen played more than half the game, he was unfairly credited with the loss. Excluding Tuesday’s game, in Talbot’s 6 straight losses, he had .900, .806, .800, .906, .826, .857 save percentage. If Talbot wasn’t their previous starter and had a 4.2 mill contract and he was a young back up goalie making league minimum, he’d be in the minors because of those numbers.
Overall, Talbot is 6-9,(should be 6-10) has a .892% and a 3.19 GA. Koskinen is 8-3(should be 8-2), .925% and a 2.23 GA, plus 2 shut outs. So 33 points better and almost a full goal a game better than Talbot. I looked up the overall starts, Koskinen is 8th in overall save percentage and 2nd in goals against. What message do you send Koskinen or YOUR TEAM if you start Talbot over Koskinen when 1 goalies has been superior and it’s not close.
