iinatcc Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 If Bishop sign with Dallas, with their 3rd overall pick Dallas is going to be a threat next season. Don't you just love how some teams get all the breaks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JV77 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Good move. They needed to do something with their goaltending no matter what it takes or how much money they gotta throw at him. Stars should a top team next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 LA gave up a prospect, a 7th and another conditional pick and missed the playoffs. I'm not sure this worked out that well for them although the return of a 4th is some consolation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But darn, I hope he goes to free agency, so I can make myself feel better by watching what insane contract Calgary will offer him. Calgary was on his No Trade list, so probably no amount of money will make him go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All DAL needs to do now is trade us the 3OA + a prospect for Tanev and they're set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They kind of reminds me of the post-2004 TBL. No goalie, weak defense.... lots of good offensive players. Bottoming feeding team, but exciting to watch.

He has a knack for fixing defense. Dallas will likely be a lock for a wild card spot next year, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'd buy him out and keep the #3pick... but it does present us with an opportunity. Tanev + Torts 2nd = 3OA + Niemi full salary probably gets done. Benning could pick Vilardi and Glass and we'd be stacked up front. If we could grab Alzner as a FA it would go a long way to filling the gaping hole left in our D by moving Tanev.

I'm not sure this worked out that well for them although the return of a 4th is some consolation. TB gave them a 5th along with Bishop. And the conditional pick's, condition, wasn't met. So it was Budaj, Cernak, 7th for, a 4th and 5th. Not bad IMO. Not making the playoffs makes it seem worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough..may have been mutual. Quote The Dallas Stars announced on Tuesday afternoon that they have acquired the rights to Ben Bishop from the Los Angeles Kings, a goaltender in which they’ve had interest before. The Stars surrendered Montreal’s fourth-round pick from the 2017 draft and will have exclusive negotiating rights to the unrestricted free agent. “I’m under the impression there have been no talks yet between Dallas and Bishop, but now obviously that’s going to start,” said NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman during a radio hit on Toronto’s Sportsnet 590 only minutes after the deal was announced. “And there is some history here. Last year at the draft, Dallas did get permission to talk – or at least talked with Tampa about acquiring Ben Bishop. It was something they discussed, and ultimately decided not to do. “And you’ll remember last year Ben Bishop thought he was going to Calgary. He thought he had a six-year deal worth somewhere between $36-39 million and that deal was killed by Calgary ownership at the end of the day. https://www.fanragsports.com/news/friedman-stars-inquired-bishop-last-summer/ With Darling to Canes..who is left?
