Fleury's current cap hit today had nothing to do with the expansion draft in 2017. And during that expansion draft, Fleury was not considered a cap dump, but merely the older of two championship-winning goalies on the Pittsburgh Penguins' roster. They could not protect both, and based on the information available at the time, keeping the 22-year-old Matt Murray was a no-brainer.
