Pens fans, please stop trading Fleury like he has the same value he had 3 years ago! I'm not saying he isn't still good but GM's are smart, they see he's lost a step and could be available for cheap near the expansion draft if he ends up waiving his NMC. And if he doesn't? Then they can make a pitch for your actual #1 goalie Murray who will be the expansion draft casualty if not traded otherwise. Not too mention that there are a bunch of decently good goalies available. If Fleury was the only guy of his calibre available then ok but he really isn't! Bishop, Miller, Varlamov, Howard, Halak, Mason, Pavelec, Elliot, Mrazek, etc.
Fleury has little value not because he isn't still decently good but because of circumstance. It's unfortunate but its the truth.
