EDIT - To give a bit of perspective on why they'd chase a goalie with only a year of contract left, perhaps they feel it prudent to give Gillies a full year of games in the AHL to decide how far off he is from NHL action, or if his game can translate to the NHL anyway.
If the cost isn't that high, Bishop could easily drag our team back into the postseason by himself. If he walks, the expansion draft is looming and GMs will be very antsy on not losing goalies for nothing.

It will cost more than that even with a year left on his deal.
