Lionhearted.
Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Ben Bishop told reporters that he suffered a torn groin on a Brad Richards shot in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final.
Bishop was in and out of the crease after the injury, but returned to play out the rest of the series in Game 5, unfortunately taking the loss in the final two games.
He said he will not require surgery, simply rest in the offseason.
Despite the injury, Bishop finished with a sterling .921 save percentage and 2.31 goals-against average.
