That's absurd to suggest contract length could invalidate a goalie from being the better option. Cap management is a critical component of building a hockey team, but ultimately if Bishop played better than Smith would have for three years and during that three years the Flames were cup contenders and maybe even win one then Bishop would be the better option.
