Talbot will defend the cage at home versus Toronto on Thursday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Talbot will get the nod Thursday while Alex Lyon starts Friday's home clash with Ottawa. Given the battle for the No. 1 job in the Motor City, it wouldn't be a shock to see Ville Husso take the preseason finale on the road versus the Leafs on Saturday. While the veteran Talbot likely has the inside track, there is no clear starter at this point, with the Wings possibly even deploying a three-headed monster in the crease.
