Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury is one of the hottest trade candidates on the market right now, but he has released that he will not be allowing a trade to one specific team for sure.

That team is the Washington Capitals. According to Frank Seravalli, the long-time Pittsburgh Penguin plans on refusing to go to the Caps due to his lengthy history versus them when he played with the Pens.

The Pens-Caps rivalry is one of the biggest ones in the NHL, and it is understandable why Fleury would not want to be a part of a former rival team.

Fleury is currently 15-16-3 on the season with a 2.88 GAA and .910 SV%, so his numbers are still decent, considering he is on a below average NHL team. The long-time veteran will be looking to be traded to a contending team for another playoff run.
