The Detroit Red Wings responded to Tuesday's setback with a scrappy performance and a 5-2 road victory over the Florida Panthers on Thursday night.

Talbot is riding a limited two-game winning streak despite posting a combined 3.53 GAA and .875 save percentage in those outings. With Alex Lyon (upper body) injured, the veteran Talbot could see some extra starts over the Wings' next handful of outings -- though Ville Husso is also an option after being called up from the minors.
