Talbot will be in the crease for Monday's game against the Predators.

Analysis:

Talbot has won seven of his last nine starts while posting save percentages above .900 in his last four turns. The Rangers' offense has been steamrolling opponents lately to the benefit of Talbot, but he may not be afforded such a luxury Monday. The Predators are expected to counter in goal with Pekka Rinne, who despite some recent hiccups, has been airtight this season, ranking second among qualifying netminders in both GAA (2.08) and save percentage (.928).
