Signing Bishop long term will be a mistake in my opinion. Clearly their is no convincing you guys. Elliot had a bad playoffs, burn him at the stake.
Not saying sign him for 5-7 years but 3-4 is okay. Also closer to $5-6M than $7-8M that he would have commanded on an extension last summer

Elliott had an awful start to the season and a horrible playoffs. He has never played true starter minutes and outside of a run on a Hitchcock team that always hesitated to truly give him the reigns.

I bashed Elliott for a huge portion of the season because of his play. He won me over with a nice 25 game stretch but lost me again in the playoffs especially game 3
