    They report that Fleury has desired a return to Pittsburgh for a while, suggesting that a trade to Pittsburgh might re-invigorate him.

    It’s unlikely that Pittsburgh would take on all of Fleury’s $7 million cap hit, but if the Blackhawks, or a third team like the Coyotes or Sabres, ate a portion it could be feasible.

  • DeAngelo to Sign in Carolina

    Tony DeAngelo is closing in on a deal with Carolina, reports Frank Seravalli.

    DeAngelo can be an elite point-producing defenseman, but his work in the defensive zone is porous.

  • Canucks Sign Conor Garland

    The Canucks have signed Conor Garland to a five-year deal.

    Garland was set to be a RFA when free agency opens tomorrow. The deal will cover two RFA seasons and three UFA seasons.

  • Marc-Andre Fleury Traded to Chicago

    Marc-Andre Fleury has been traded to the Chicago Blackhawks.

    Fleury is coming off winning the Vezina for the Golden Knights, but the team was going with Robin Lehner more regularly towards the end of the playoff run. He carries a $7 million cap hit next season.

    Chicago will pair Fleury with Kevin Lankinen in net.

    Bob McKenzie throws the idea that Fleury might contemplate retirement out there, however, as Fleury only wanted to play for Vegas and Chicago was not on his no-trade list.
