- Опубликовано: 11 дек 2021
- If not for injuries, he could have had a hall of fame worthy career. He was an excellent goaltender when on top of his game.

I’m really going to miss him in the NHL. when I first got into hockey, he was one of the players I got to know well, and he’s been one of my favorite goalies since
I really liked Ben Bishop, It's just sad he had so many injury problems
I'll always look back to Game 7 in 2019 where he carried a completely flat Stars team to Double OT. A fantastic performance, and definitely the one I'll remember him for.
That is a game I'll always remember
One of the best goalies of the 2010s. It’s a shame that he couldn’t stay healthy consistently
As a Lightning fan I loved bishop, he was so flexible for a big guy. I was pretty upset when he got traded but it worked out even better with Vasy. Glad he had success after he left, sucks the way his career ended.
I’m gonna miss Bishop as much as I like Holtby and Oettinger I only got to see Bishop play one game in person but he was fantastic. I cried after the Stars lost game 7 to the Blues but honestly if Bishop hadn’t stood on his head Dallas would have gotten blown out what a career all the best in retirement
Greatest game 7 goalie performance I’ve seen in my life. Unreal
Saw Bishop way early on in his career at a Texas Tornadoes game. First time I'd seen such a tall goalie. Was so cool to see him come to Dallas and put up several solid seasons. Wish he could've recovered but health has to come first.
Great goalie, sad to see it end this way. He was incredible 2 years ago, could have been a memorable finals.
I won't forget game 7 of the 2nd round during the 2019 playoffs. Almost single handedly stole that game from the blues. Great goaltender.
Bish fighting Prust during a tv timeout is my all time favorite memory of him as a Bolt. He was a fan favorite and stand up guy off the ice too!
I feel like he and rinne defined the big goalie of the 2010s. It's a real shame cause I always enjoyed watching him play and was hoping he could come back.
Solid respectable NHL career. He should be proud. Hope all his injuries heal & he enjoys the next phase of his life.
As a long time bolts fan I'd like to say thank you to Mr. Bishop. I can still remember when we robbed ottawa for him lol. He put up great numbers and battled injuries the entire way. We then traded him to the kings and got cernak out of it. Everything to do with Bishop has been positive for the bolts. I wish him nothing but the best and wish he could of got a cup.
The Lightning take out the Blackhawks in the final if Bishop doesn't tear his groin. Remember the TV broadcast, how they said something isn't right, during TV breaks he literally just stands still between the pipes and doesn't move at all -- well, torn groin is why, that's what we found out after the series ended. No idea how he played with a torn groin, I had a strain groin (large pecker issue) and I could barely walk for 2 weeks. He was insanely good that year, and if he's healthy, and the Blackhawks don't break Tyler Johnson's hand on a dirty play, the Lightning win the series in 5 games.
Thank you Bishop for the years in Tampa, you were a tremendous gentleman with the fans and helped Vasy become a great goaltender. You also indirectly helped bring Cernak to Tampa who is one of the most underrated shutdown defenseman in the nhl.
The history book of the Lightning can't be written without Ben Bishop. Hate to see any career end like this.
He was amazing come playoff time. But just had awful injury luck. 2014, he gets injured before playoffs, Lightning get swept. Next year he helps take Lightning to Final, gets injured in those Finals, Lightning lose. Next year he takes Lightning to Conference Finals, gets injured game 1 vs Pittsburgh, Lightning lose in game 7. And then 3 seasons later he plays amazing with Stars and puts the team on his back for game 7, but they lose in Overtime to Cup Champions. Great goaltender that dealt with crap luck for his whole career, deserves credit for help reviving the Lightning franchise though
He didn't just get injured in the final in 2015, he tore his groin and most played through it. Anyone who says he's soft, he played with a torn groin. You do that if you think someone is soft.
He was the goaltender when I first started following Tampa and the NHL. Im so glad I got to watch him. Always cheered for him after he was traded and hoped he could get healthy again.
He holds the all-time record for playoff game 7 shutouts with 5. As a Bolts fan, I am sad that he never won the cup and Vezina with us.
His ability to play the puck to his defense..away from his net was memorable..and too bad not more games . Best wishes, Ben Bishop!
Wish Bish and his family the best. Bummer that his playing days were limited and ended by injury. He was always a class act and great mentor for Vasy back in the day.
I never realized how few seasons he actually played as a starting goalie. It’s too bad his career couldn’t have been longer.
Was great watching Ben play at UMaine at the Alfond and watch him through his career. All the best Big Ben
Thank you for the deep playoff runs in Tampa, Ben. I will always remember you for that.
Glad he was in Tampa. His style of goaltending of a big guy that could cover the entire bottom of the net was revolutionary. We appreciate he taught it to Vasy who has perfected it. How spoiled were we to have Bishop and Vasy at the same time. Wish him luck in the next chapter of his life! Go Bolts!
He is a legend for the youth hockey team he played for here in St. Louis. He was a great goaltender during in his career.
I feel bad for Ben I'm a Blues fan but I'll never as long as I live ever forget his game 7 performance a couple of years ago
It sucks to think that Bishop is likely going to go down as one of the biggest "what ifs" of the 2010s. He had stretches were he looked so dominant, and I strongly believe that if he could have stayed healthy he could have easily built up a resume to put himself in the top 5 all-time amongst american goaltender. He still had a hell of a career, but man it still sucks that it ended this way for him.
Lightning legend. Fan favorite. They struggled finding that reliable starter after Khabibulin. We'll always love Bish here!
Got to meet him at the Lightning fan fest the year they went to the cup final against Chicago. He was the last one to sign autographs, handlers kept trying to get him to go but he stayed like 2 hours past his time to make sure he got to see everyone. Was bummed when we traded him but that turned out for the best. Great guy, wish him the best.
Love Bish in Tampa, was sad to see him go at the time. Poor guy has so many weird injurie highlights, stick to the eye, front teeth being knocked out, mask cutting his nose, the leg injury in 2016, the falling onto his shoulder before the 14 playoffs. Kind of a magnet for injuries.
I was a goalie too. I had to stop playing when I was fifteen due to a knee injury. At least he got to live the dream.
I went to elementary school with Ben in St. Louis. Great guy!
The best story about Ben is that he got his first start because Manny Legace tripped on the carpet that they had out for Sarah Palin dropping the first puck.
Plus, Ben Bishop is a great guy. Always loved here in Tampa.
6'7the guy could have played basketball. It's always frustrating as a hockey fan in general when a good player has a career hampered by injury. We had a guy like that in Vancouver - Dan Cloutier. Cloutier had some solid regular seasons and had the some of most heart and desire I've seen in a Canucks goalie, never giving up on a play, but between those knee injuries and mental blocks when playing teams like Colorado and Detroit in the playoffs, it just never quite came together.
I thought he didn't get enough of a chance with the Blues when he was here. It's always fun to see local guys have success in the league. Sad to see his career end this way, but that's just how it goes sometimes.
His performance in the 2019 Blues/Stars series will definitely be remembered here, especially considering the way it ended with him and Maroon in game 7.
I’ve long wondered what would have been had the Blues kept the StL kid.
I remember when Tampa traded out Conacher who was having a great season and really looked like a player with potential. So I was not happy as a fan to see him leave and Bishop to come in. Well, changed my mind quite quickly on that one as Big Ben took over. No real weaknesses expect being very injury prone. I think Vasy learned a lot from him as well and would not be to kind of goalie he is without playing with Bishop. Ben will always be a Tampa favourite no matter what, all the best.
And from Goalie U, UMaine. Thanks for the memories, Big Ben, and go Black Bears
I'm always ready for a goalie career video!
From 2012 to 2016 I’d have killed to have him back in St. Louis. A guy i was a fan of for a very long time.
Ben Bishop helped catapult the bolts to a contender which was the prime of his career. He also helped Vasy become the great goalie that he is now. Congrats on a great career bish. It's a shame that the injury bug ended his career that quickly.
Bishop was a beast. Shame the injuries took a toll on him
Bishop was always unbeatable when detroit played them while he was in Tampa. Great goalie, enjoy retirement
Bishop’s fantastic career aside, it is worth noting that Vasilevskiy would not be the goalie he is today without Bishop being there. Even though his name won’t be on either of Tampa’s cups, it might as well be
Thank you Bish 💙⚡️💙
Watched and met him when he played for the NAHL Texas tornado. Also met him and got hes autograph. Super cool.
For a few years there, the Lightning's playoff runs essentially ended when Bishop got hurt (including in '14 when he got hurt right before the playoff started). If he stays healthy, we might have won a few cups back then.
Besides size, Bishop was also part of the early wave of establishing the NCAA as a more credible proving ground for goaltenders. I’d say Dryden was the trailblazer on both, but Bishop was part of those becoming common.
Gonna miss you in Dallas, Big Ben
Thanks for the two playoffs runs that was fun times and mentoring vasy!! Had a feeling once he left Tampa that would be the end to his career
I wish Bishop could have gone out playing, same with Lundqvist. I always liked him.
Loved watching Bishop in Tampa. Met him as a kid, such a standup guy.
Beyond respectable career!
Definitely an impressive career, not many guys call it quits with over 400 games played at above .920
Congratulations Bishop on your great career!
I remember watching him down in the ahl with the Peoria rivermen and he has been one of my favorite goalies ever since. Real shame his career couldn't be longer
Yep,
I remember for every 2 or three great things he did, he did something absolutely stupid
I only started following hockey in the last few years and Bishop always seemed plagued by injury but when he was in, Dallas were always contenders.
I don't think the Blues win their Cup if Bishop was 100% in their series
yeah but in keep mind the Blues success during there feel good run was due to a coaching change
Or if the blues kept him lol
He sure was fun to watch in Dallas. We’ll miss him.
Great net mider that's going to be missed! He had to fight both his body and the play on the ice during his career and still put up great numbers.
I would like to see a career video of Iginla, surprised one wasn't done a while ago when he was announced to be inducted in the HoF.
I never got that NHls Win-lose style.. most important is save percentage and goal allowed per game stats..
Bishop was brought in to LA because there was real concern that Jonathan Quick would never play again he was coming off his 2nd (and arguably worse) groin injury in 2 or 3 years,Bishop was seen as an adequate replacement if need be, but Quick came back and looked fine while Bishop didn't have the best run with LA so was flipped at seasons end they got a 4th for a UFA turned it into another D-man (Marcus Phillips) but Cernak would be nice to have. But hey cheers to Bishop sucks that it eneded this way real good goalie who should have had even more success
ben will be going into the us hockey hall of fame
Ben Bishop's Stars debut vs. The Golden Knights in their very first game. 1-2 Vegas goaltending duel that he got injured during. Still believe the game would have been 1-0 Stars had he not gotten injured.
I'll never forget that game. Will never forget that atmosphere
Incredibly sad he could never truly stay healthy. A healthy Ben Bishop in my mind could have been a Hall of Famer.
Arguably should have two Vezinas. Not saying Vasi didn't rightfully win in 2018-2019 but it was a toss up between him and Bishop for me. And I absolutely think he was robbed of it in 2015-2016 by Holtby.
Terrific goalie. Watching a great player have to retire due to injuries is such a bummer, every time.
Big Ben!!!!!
Top tier of the goalie mask game for his entire career.
I'm sad that Ben Bishop had to go out this way. He was a great goalie for Tampa and Dallas. Tampa is my team, and we were worried about the goalie position after we traded him. Little did a lot of us know how good the Big Cat was going to prove to be. Every time Bishop would get to rolling he'd get hurt and it sucks for him.
Ok I was wrong, he is going to do a career video sooner than later.
what a shame
I never really got to enjoy him
sucks to see careers done because of injuries
I remember when we got him from Ottawa and the sentiment from other fans was, "Yzerman got fleeced! LOL!" Pff, that was always funny to look back on and laugh 😂
When I first saw how Big Ben was in net, I thought to myself "how can a goal get through him".
Wow that’s crazy…he was traded to Ottawa on Feb. 26 and he was traded to the Kings on Feb. 26…that just happens to be my birthday that’s why it stood out to me…lol
Bishop does still have title of the Tallest Goalie though at 6'7' in NHL beast of a man
Not a coincidence he was injury prone and he was 6’7”
Boy, that was fast. Ka-ZING. Thanks. .921 career SV% despite time with some not very good defensive teams.
The Hall of Very Good. Yzerman took that steal from OTT and handed the guy the net and it oh so worked. They were shotgun approaching the goalies at the time as I think Roloson was the guy at 38 years old. Lightning fans couldn’t figure out that he had to be traded or they’d lose him or Vasy to the expansion draft. They really thought it was Bishop over first round pick Vasy
I grew up watching this guy for the Rivermen. One of my favorites to watch. Real shame that the Blues got rid of him, all the best in retirement.
Please please do a career video on Hammer #4. Would love to see what you put together
He was fantasy gold for my boys.
Big dude, tendency for injury is higher
It's a shame but the Blues had to trade Bishop. Part of is contract was that he had to be moved up to the NHL or he could walk. The Blues had Halak, Elliott and Allen ahead of him, so he had to go. Plus he wasn't blowing up the AHL. Wish we could have kept him.
It's entirely possible that he could be inducted into the US Hockey Hall of Fame, but without any serious hardware to his name I could also see him coming up short for induction as well too.
La Kings LEGEND!!!!!!
Pretty sure he was at my house when he played for the Texas tornados. Who would have known.
Ben was great, when he could stay healthy. I'll miss him.
Really sucks the injuries he had 2020
was his best chance at a cup
Are we gonna get a King Louis video now that he got his 600th pt Shannon
I've always really liked Bishop. Sucks to see him go, but I wish him the best. Hopefully his injuries will not follow him in his civilian life.
I didn't hear much from him honestly, but sad to see him go. A goalie taken out too early
Sad the way it ended, but health is number one. Wish him the best in post hockey
I called Bishop. I'm calling Stamkos 4 years ago. LGL
8:41 "Very acrobatic for being 6'7", injuries would limit how many games he played". I think we're stumbling across the downside of very large goalies.
Poor Poor Bishop :(
What an unfortunate end, as I think he had a couple more years left in him but overall a fantastic career. Im still Jealous he hit his stride after being on the Blues.
How lucky are the Bolts to see him play for them and now Vasy?
Doug Armstrong is solid, but watching him get Ryan Miller before The deadline instead of trusting halak and Big Ben was thriving was so aggravating
Hate seeing someone end their career this way. Great goalie
I'm hoping that Cossa becomes the next Bishop
really deserved a cup with tampa
