Description

More just for fun. Fleury I think is very likely, Chychrun is more of a pipe dream but his contract makes him somewhat of a realistic target. Sounds like Fiala is all but gone this offseason so we'd have the cap to fit in Chychrun beyond this season if that's the case.

NHL teams can carry more than 23 players past the deadline, so 3 goaltenders won't be an issue.

Per the Capfriendly Wild team page, we have $10M in cap space this season. Fleury deal retains just enough to keep us under that mark.

Hawks will most likely be unwilling to move Fleury for less than a first, per Bob McKenzie

And the Wild are not willing to give up a first, per our beat writer Michael Russo. Chicago doesn't have a lot of leverage with his NMC. Plus, this was just tweeted:

Assuming Marc-Andre Fleury is willing to go, I believe Billy Guerin gets this done with the #mnwild

Fair enough. If I had to guess I'd bet that Fleury doesn't get moved, but stranger things have happened.

Why wouldn't Chicago move him? They got him for nothing this offseason and they aren't winning a cup this year. Might as well cash in and take the best offer you can get for him to help rebuild

I do agree that it would be stupid of them not to move him, but given their recent history when it comes to being indecisive about rebuilding and signing Seth Jones, I don't trust their management to make the right decision.
