Report: Vegas Golden Knights to trade Marc-Andre Fleury

The saga continues as Marc-Andre Fleury is apparently on his way out of Vegas as soon as it's possible. His agent, Allan Walsh sent out a shocking photo on Saturday and it's blown up the hockey media world. According to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston, it won't be long after the season before 'Flower' is traded.

I think this is representative of a little bit of tension around that goaltending situation. I do not think that Marc Andre Fleury feels he has had a fair shake while starting just 2 of the 8 games that Vegas has played. I do think that it is fair to say that this raises some long term questions about Marc Andre Fleury's time in Vegas... it might be something they have to do a few weeks down the round

It looks like once the photo was sent out by his agent, the team contact Fleury to smooth things over.

According to several sources: the Golden Knights met with Marc-Andre Fleury this afternoon and are satisfied this will not be an issue as they chase the Stanley Cup. I'd expect Fleury to address this with media tomorrow.

With Robin Lehner hitting free-agency after the playoffs, we don't expect to see Fleury traded unless Lehner is re-signed. Vegas doesn't want to leave themselves 'nothing' in the crease for their future.

If Fleury is moved, expect the Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, and Carolina Hurricanes to be interested.

What a turn of events in Vegas, meanwhile the team is trying to win playoff games.
