[Trade] Tampa Bay trade G Ben Bishop to Los Angeles

Ben Bishop has been traded to LAK.

 

We have acquired Peter Budaj, Erik Cernak, & a 2017 seventh-round pick from the @lakings in exchange for Ben Bishop.

 

We have also received a conditional pick in the 2017 draft, and have sent a fifth-round pick in 2017 to LA.

 

Tampa Bay retains 20 percent of Bishop salary/cap hit

Dang, everyone hating on J.B. 
Let's see what the return for Bishop is first before jumping on that wagon.

Hearing if deal gets done, Kings get Ben Bishop and pick and TB Lightning would receive Erik Cernak, Budaj and pick #TSN

 

Cernak's a right-handed shutdown D-man with size and some offense but poor skating ability according to Hockey News.
Budaj's solid as a stopgap goalie.  However, not sure how those two add up to equal Bishop, unless Stevie wanted to dump him.
Wonder what picks are exchanged?

Keeping Miller then. Can salvage this by giving him another year of mentorship. 

They need a 2nd goalie for two years, at least.  Keeping Miller makes all the sense, as long as they flip him and Markey......Markey needs to play
