“Well I would think Marc-Ande Fleury has already played his last game for the Golden Knights, and this won’t be an easy transaction. I mean look, he all see his cap hit, $7 million, and we’re looking at a market place where as I mentioned where a lot of teams are looking to shed money and were even where teams are interested in adding players don’t always have it.

But I think one of the options that I think Kelly McCrimmon and the Vegas Golden Knights have at least started to explore, is whether they may be able to use an intermediary team as part of their three-way deal in which that team is the one that retains part of Fleury’s salary in order to make this kind of transaction work.
