Former Lightning goalie Ben Bishop as you’ve never seen him before

It's been a few years since Ben Bishop suited up for the Lightning, so it's reasonable to think he might look a bit different than we remember.

But, this?

Bishop, now tending goal for the Stars, was the talk of the Twitter-verse after photos appeared of him dressed as the beast from Beauty and the Beast for a recent Halloween party with his teammates in Dallas.

At 6 feet, 7 inches, Bishop is the perfect size for the part. And he has the makeup, the wig, the ruffles — and the shoulder pads? — to pull it off.
