Report- Penguins Asking For Calgary's First Round Pick For Marc-Andre Fleury

from Eric Francis of the Calgary Sun,

And then there was one.

One NHL team looking hard for a starting goalie.

With the Toronto Maple Leafs giving up a first-round pick (30th) and a second rounder next year to acquire Frederik Andersen from Anaheim Monday, the Calgary Flames are the only team left with a gaping hole between the pipes.

Somebody better tell Jim Rutherford.

Otherwise, the Pittsburgh Penguins GM is going to lose out on the opportunity to get something of considerable value for goalie Marc-Andre Fleury.

The Calgary Sun has learned Rutherford is asking for the Flames’ first round draft pick for Fleury — yes, the sixth pick overall at Friday’s NHL Entry Draft in Buffalo.

It’s not going to happen, nor should it.
