Talbot will start for the Kings on Tuesday as they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Talbot and the Kings will look to record consecutive wins for the first time this season after an impressive 26-save, 5-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets. Mark Scheifele scored with fewer than 80 seconds left to spoil Talbot's shutout bid on Tuesday and spoil an otherwise perfect performance. After two games this season, Talbot has a 2.51 GAA and .921 SV% and looks to be the goalie-of-choice for Todd McLellan and the Kings' coaching staff. Tonight, the Kings are very slight -106 road favourites against a Minnesota Wild team that is coming off a dominant 5-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.
