Went with Bishop, turned the corner for the franchise, skipped the rebuild and just became a playoff team 1 year into icing a team with like 5-6 rookies.

There's no way we should've went from 2013: drafting 3rd overall, 2014: making the playoffs without Stamkos and St.louis, 2015: Playing in the SCF, 2016: Making the ECF and the biggest reason we did was Ben Bishop.

At a certain point the talent has to win out over the accomplishments. If Bishop had been around during the window years, and healthy, he'd be a first ballot hall of famer pretty easily. Probably the single biggest gamer in franchise history. I can't remember him having a mediocre "big game." Always came through. It was his health that let us down, never his play.

Ben Bishop in elimination games: 8GP: 4 shut outs, 262/268 shots saved. 0.75GAA, 0.978 save%.
