Talbot surprisingly returned to full practice Friday for the Ottawa Senators after missing the last few weeks due to a rib injury. Head Coach DJ Smith said "Talbot will come on the trip but won't play. He can skate and take shots each day on the trip." The 35-year-old netminder was acquired in the offseason for Filip Gustavsson after enjoying a 32-win season in Minnesota in 2021-22 while posting a .911 SV% and 2.76 GAA.
Talbot was spotted on the ice at Senators' practice taking shots alongside Anton Forberg after missing the last three weeks due to an upper-body injury. He is still a few weeks away from returning but it is a great sign for Ottawa's big offseason addition. He is currently sitting on 201 career wins with a .915 SV% through 396 career GP.
Talbot is expected to miss at least the first month of the season. The Senators claimed Magnus Hellberg off waivers from the Kraken to help provide depth behind Anton Forsberg while Talbot is out.
