That's the only scenario that would make sense, but he would also have to waive his NMC for a trade, and I would imagine he would rather be traded to a non-expansion franchise than be selected by Vegas. Trading is a win-win for both parties in this scenario because the Pens don't have to continue paying his salary, and Fleury can choose his destination.
The most likely scenario in my mind is that Pittsburgh buys him out so they can protect Murray, and then he signs wherever he wants.
