G Alex Bishop - Saint John Sea Dogs, QMJHL (2016 undrafted)

[Bjornar Moxnes]

So yeah, my friend Alex Bishop plays for the Sea Dogs, and his stats aren't great, but aren't bad either. So my question is how come he hasn't been on any of the scouts ratings whatsoever, when there are even worse goalies in the Q (Stat wise) that are? Also for those who watched him play, how is he playing overall? Do you think he has a future in the NHL?

Met this guy this summer, he's a nice guy. I hope he has some future but I know he himself wasn't sold on having the starters job, I think he's likely going undrafted.

Yeah he's a super nice and super intelligent individual. I remember he how jealous and envious he was of my friend and I (Both of them are close with McDavid now and I unfortunately had to move out of Newmarket, so I never got a chance to meet McDavid...) had the best teacher in grade 7, who was actually a fair marker, kind, and didn't overkill on hw haha.

I don't mean to be a jerk but I'm pretty sure D'Orio is the starter there now (started 6 of the last 8 I think) and it seems most assume they add a goalie in the next few weeks when the trade period opens. Saint John is pretty sacked defensively and neither goalie has been consistent for them.
