Canadiens and Wild in Deep Trade Talks: Could Marc-Andre Fleury Retire in His Hometown?

The Minnesota Wild lost goaltender Filip Gustavsson for a bit of time and could be looking at the Montreal Canadiens for his replacement.

Today, it was announced that Minnesota Wild goaltender Filip Gustavsson would be missing a bit of time with injury.

With this injury, the Wild have been looking at the Montreal Canadiens in an effort to find a new starting goaltender.

While it is unknown what the Canadiens would try to get out of the Wild, there is a solid chance they target Marc-Andre Fleury as he is in the final year of his contract with the Wild and potentially his career. If the Wild want a better piece long-term, they could land Allen and give up Fleury plus a couple of future assets like picks or prospects.
