Yeah, when I hear fans on here slamming a guy like Bishop as a poor option for the Flames and a bullet dodged I can't really imagine what they're looking for in a goalie to be called elite/top starter material, that's even remotely available.
I mean, he's not perfect and yeah there's better goalies, but it almost feels like fans are on a bit of a unicorn chase for a Carey Price type, or want to wait for a young goalie to maybe pan out. Well great, but how many seasons to do wait to see if it works to get a non household name to be a top starter for us?
We're not exactly on year two of a rebuild anymore.
