The Minnesota Wild traded goaltender Cam Talbot to the Ottawa Senators last week, the media and fans were not too happy about the decision and neither was Talbot. The goaltender thought as if he was blindsided when he was traded due to the Minnesota Wild re-signing Marc-Andre Fleury to a longer term, meaning Talbot would officially be the backup in Minnesota. Info was leaked and Talbot's agent was found to be swearing at the Minnesota Wilds general manager during contract negotiations..
Talbot addressed the media and stated the following:
«I didn't really want to be moved," Talbot told reporters on Thursday. "It played out in the media that maybe I had some ill will toward the organization or something like that. It wasn't like that at all."
Minnesota Wild reporter Michael Russo fired back at Talbot publicly on twitter.
Cam Talbot, yesterday again, talking out of both sides of his mouth, acting so innocent here, it's insane. He, on his conference call yesterday, said this is just something that played out and was overblown in the media. And that [media made it out to seem like] he had some sort of ill-will toward the organization, when it wasn't like that at all. He will not explain what he means by that. Umm, excuse me, we watched your agent yelling at Bill Guerin!
