Day late on the response but 95% of the league could have had Fleury for a 1st, good prospect and an expansion qualifying goalie in return. Pit didn't give Fleury to Vegas out of the goodness or their heart, they had to give up a player, had 2 really good goalies and only 1 qualified for the expansion draft. If the Flames signed a veteran goalie and included him in the same package as we gave up for Hamonic Fleury would be wearing a red jersey. Vegas wasn't gifted a great team, they are a bunch of overachieving cast-offs, the 2018 Bad News Bears.
