Move over, Grant Fuhr.
With a victory over the San Jose Sharks on Thursday night, Cam Talbot earned his 41st win of 2016-17 to establish an Edmonton Oilers record for most wins in a single regular season.
The win came in Talbot's 72nd appearance of the season, and put the Oilers two points up on San Jose for second place in the Pacific Division.
Talbot owes Milan Lucic a dinner after the rugged winger recorded a natural hat-trick to propel the Oilers to the goalie's historic win.
