The Ontario organization confirmed the news Monday afternoon and called for waivers from Magnus Hellberg. This was provided by the Seattle Kraken. According to the broadcaster TSN, the veteran suffered a broken rib on Saturday.
At the Minnesota Wild last season, Talbot posted a 32-12-4 record with 2.77 goals against average and a .911 save percentage. In exchange, he sent Filip Gustavsson to St. Paul, the federal capital.
At the start of the campaign, the “Sens” can rely on Anton Forsberg regularly defending their cage.
– In addition, striker Radim Zohorna was also claimed for waivers. He leaves the Pittsburgh Penguins for the Calgary Flames.
