We have our up and coming goalies
I have a feeling me may not be as elite (anymore?) as we thought.
All we need is a league average goalie that will get us through the next 2 years. A league average goalie that has steady play. Doesn't play out of his mind like Johnson and Elliot did this past season and then crash and burn like Elliot and Johnson did this past season.

i think this is going to be the case with any goalie that we sign now, including Elliott...
As for our up and coming goalies - that's the hope... that's not a 100% guaranteed that any of them will turn out... I don't think its fair to say you don't think Bishop is elite anymore and simultaneously pin our goaltending future on one of three guys, who have 1 NHL game of experience between them...
its water under the bridge now, but the goaltending market that remains is even more dubious than what Bishop provides imo....
