Blue Jackets’ Cam Talbot sets NHL record by winning with 9th different team
Columbus, Ohio (AP) — Cam Talbot achieved a remarkable milestone by becoming the first NHL goaltender to win a game with nine distinct teams. He accomplished this feat by stopping 20 out of 20 shots during the Columbus Blue Jackets' 3-2 shootout victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday night.
The previous record had been held by Curtis McElhinney, Sean Burke, and Ron Tugnutt. Talbot, who is in his 13th season in the NHL, surpassed their achievement while establishing himself with the Columbus Blue Jackets for the first time.
