“I think so,” said Fleury while in New York for league meetings.

“I think Calgary is a great town and a great hockey team too. I think they’ll be very good again this year."


What could have been.....
You've brought this up before and people have told you it would have cost the Flames Tkachuk. Would you have been ok with that? Because I sure wouldn't have.

Let it go. It would have been nice to get Fleury but not at that cost.
