Oilers' Cam Talbot: Hangs on for OT win

Talbot stopped 28 of 31 shots from the Panthers for a 4-3 overtime win at home Wednesday.

Analysis:

Talbot surrendered three unanswered goals to put himself in a hole before the Oilers jabbed back with an even-strength marker from Jordan Eberle in the third period and Connor McDavid sealed the deal in overtime. No goalie has worked between the pipes more than Talbot this season, as he's already started an eye-popping 42 games. If you're relying on him in fantasy, there must be at least some level of concern that he could burn out from such a huge workload; as it stands, his peripheral numbers don't jump off the page, as he' owns a 2.42 GAA and .918 save mark.
