With Lightning goalie Ben Bishop returning to his hometown to face the Blues this week, he reflected on his time in St. Louis, and how it might have been a "blessing in disguise" that he was traded, eventually landing in Tampa Bay.
With the help of special guest Darren Pang, a former NHL goaltender and Blues color analyst, our latest "Lightning Strikes" podcast episode discusses Bishop's journey, his time in St. Louis and how he ranks among the league's elite goaltenders.
Also in the podcast, I answer some of your questions on Lightning trade possibilities, Andrei Vasilevskiy's potential return and the Triplets' scoring struggles.
