Transparency in the NHL is rare, especially when it comes to contract negotiations between players and the clubs they are looking to potentially join. Often, the truth is hidden from the public, but Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Ben Bishop has no issues opening up about his reality.

 

He knows that Andrei Vasilevskiy is the goaltender of the future, and talked about the discussions he had with the Calgary Flames during the offseason:

 

“I don't think it's a big deal one way or the other. I think everybody realizes there's a business side to it. That happened, and it's over with and done with,” he told The Score. “I don't think there was any reason to hide it or deny it.”

Still, Bishop knows his focus is solely on the Lightning.
