Ben Bishop was traded for just a fourth rounder when he was a UFA-to-be.

That was just for the right to negotiate with him. The trade that sent him to the Kings had a lot of pieces, including a former 2nd round pick (Cernak - a 21yo defenseman who has played 31 games for the lightning this year) and 7th for a 5th. I had never heard of Cernak, but he sounds pretty much the equivalent of one of our young D?

2017-May-09 Traded from Los Angeles Kings to Dallas Stars for round 4 pick in the 2017 draft (Markus Phillips)

Regardless, Talbot goes cheap (assuming he goes at all).
