Like...thats like Iginla looking for a Cup but signing with Colorado. Its a huge gamble.
For sure, but I still think that is what he wanted. From all accounts the Pens were trying to do right by him, but in the end it is pretty clear that in the absence of the waiver, the Pens would cut him or trade him (as I understand there is a limited NTC).

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.

By all accounts Fleury is a great teammate, and the most popular guy in the dressing room. He's really good with the media and public too. I expect he'll be the face of the franchise in Vegas for the first couple seasons, as well as their #1 goalie.
