What is the argument to take Bishop over Fleury other than "I like him more" or "I dont want to give up assets" (which Fleury should be had for dirt cheap given he is going for free if they don't do something).

I would take Fleury over Bishop. Proven winner, played with some of the best players in the game in Crosby and Malkin. He could provide valuable leadership and experience too. He has played a ton of playoff hockey and all his teammates consider him an awesome personality. His contract is more favorable and he could potentially be had on the cheap. With Bishop you are locking yourself in for 5+ years at likely 6+mill per season.
