You have to give to get, but massively overpaying for Bishop is an excellent way to stall a rebuild entirely. Neverminding that to get Drouin as well, we would be giving up that 1st rounder + something good.
Given the odds it will be a top three pick, we'd already be guaranteed a prospect of a pick with as much more more upside than Drouin anyway.
It's a bad move.
