Have people even looked at Bishops numbers?

2012-2013 TBL 2.99 .917
2013-2014 TBL 2.23 .924
2014-2015 TBL 2.32 .916
2015-2016 TBL 2.06 .926
2016-2017 TBL 2.55 .911
2016-2017 LAK 2.49 .900

Career: 2.32 .919

Compared to Elliot:

2012-2013 STL 2.28 .907
2013-2014 STL 1.96 .922
2014-2015 STL 2.26 .917
2015-2016 STL 2.07 .930
2016-2017 CGY 2.55 .910

Career: 2.42 .913

His numbers were pretty much just as bad as Elliots this year and they've been close their entire careers. He is the same tier of goalie as Elliot. Signing him long term is a mistake when (if) we can sign Elliot for cheap and short term.

Well they should realize his play in the second half is the reason why they were in the playoffs in the first place.

Really hope Treliving is more grounded in his opinion the goaltending situation than the fans.
