Bishop was a fifth-round pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft but has primarily been an AHL player, limited to 47 NHL games in his career. The 28-year-old forward has 33 points (16G / 17A) in 39 games with the Calgary Wranglers (AHL) this season. Kevin Rooney will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Bishops' season debut.

Bishop spent the entire 2023 season in the AHL, scoring 11 goals with 12 assists (23 points) in 64 games with the Calgary Wranglers. He is expected to serve a similar role for the Flames in 2024 after signing a two-year extension.
Bishop split his 2021 season between the NHL and AHL, picking up three assists in 13 games with the Senators and five points (2G / 3A) in eight AHL games.
Bishop has missed the last six games with a lower-body injury but “may be ready to go tomorrow” after practicing Thursday. Even if he plays, Bishop has just three points (1G / 2A) in 20 games while averaging just 9:27 TOI/gm, so he has no fantasy value.
Bishop left the game in Philadelphia after playing just 2:15 TOI and is questionable for Friday’s game against the Blue Jackets. Greg McKegg was recalled from Charlotte (AHL) and would play if Bishop can’t go.
Bishop has just one goal and one assist in 15 games with the Hurricanes this season. The 22-year-old heads back to Charlotte, where he has five points (3G / 2) in 13 games.
Bishop has split his time between the NHL and AHL this season. Bishop has no points in seven games with the Hurricanes but has five points (3G / 2A) in 12 games with the Checkers. Bishop would play Friday if Micheal Ferland (undisclosed) is unavailable.
Bishop failed to record a point in his first seven career NHL games during his call-up, but returns to the AHL where he has five points (3G / 2A) in nine games. Bishop was returned to the AHL to create room so the Hurricanes could activate Victor Rask (hand) from IR.
