RUMOUR: A Fan Favourite Set to Return to the Blackhawks Organization?
The Minnesota Wild have secured goaltender Filip Gustavsson with a lucrative three-year contract worth $3.75 million per season. Announced last month.
The signing of Gustavsson to the team has sparked speculation about Marc-Andre Fleury's role for the upcoming season.
As a veteran goaltender, it seems unlikely that Fleury would be content with a backup position, especially considering it could be his final year in the NHL (as he has hinted at himself).
Marc-Andre Fleury is the ideal addition to the Chicago Blackhawks as they embark on their rebuilding journey. With the departure of Alex Stalock this offseason, the Blackhawks needed a reliable veteran presence in goal. Petr Mrazek, their current goaltender, faced injury setbacks last season. Fleury brings stability and a wealth of experience to the team, making him a key asset in Chicago's efforts to solidify their netminding during this transitional phase.
Wild fans and hockey enthusiasts alike are now eagerly awaiting further updates on how the team will handle the goaltending situation, as the new season approaches.
