Marc-Andre Fleury to the Colorado Avalanche makes some sense
NHL Watcher: Elliotte Friedman last week on the 32 Thoughts: The Podcast on the Colorado Avalanche: “If we get to a point where the #mnwild are out, to me, Colorado is one of those teams that’s going to ask, Marc-André Fleury, would you be interested in this?”

Elliotte Friedman wonder about Marc-Andre Fleury on his podcast, more of the idea making sense and not a scoop.
