STARS JUST GOT BISHOP OMFG.
Still need to officially sign him to a deal but I think that will happen. Got the cap space to make it shake.
Basically got Ben Bishop for Jordie Benn. Traded him for that pick that we got Bishop rights with. Jim Nill is a goddamn wizard. Even if it doesn't work out this is a good measured risk.
I think chances are very good we lock him up.
Hurricanes basically did same move for Scott Darling and he signed a week later, so I'm pretty confident. Hitchcock and Ben Bishop and the 3rd pick in the draft...starting to party like it's 1999 in Frisco.
The reports are saying Bishop preferred the move to Dallas, which really makes a deal pretty much imminent.
