Will Marc-Andre Fleury come out of retirement to save one NHL Team in particular?
(Image via Getty: Marc-Andre Fleury) Marc-Andre Fleury, one of the greatest goaltenders in the NHL , has a habit of playing pranks since his Pittsburgh days. What if he comes out of retirement? What if he joins an NHL team in dire need of perfect goaltending? What if he never decided to leave the ice hockey rink? Because five NHL teams have already reached out to him. But Fleury is being specifically linked to one of the teams! Joe Smith of The Athletic reported that Fleury taught the Minnesota Wild how to handle adversity. There's one NHL team that's known, felt, and witnessed adversity like no other. Any guesses? Edmonton Oilers linked to former Pittsburgh Penguins goalie Marc-Andre Fleury Joe Smith, Senior Writer for The Athletic, gave the following reasons why retired goalie Fleury could return to the runner-up of the 2025 Stanley Cup Finals, the Edmonton Oilers: Three and a half seasons with the Minnesota Wild, and Fleury revamped their entire culture Fleury raised their level of competitiveness for the good He taught them how to deal with adverse situations Marc-Andre Fleury may assist Stuart Skinner in the Edmonton Oilers Allan Mitchell of The Athletic also viewed a bright return for the retired goaltender in the form of the Edmonton Oilers. Mitchell also reported that the Edmonton Oilers were looking at Fleury to assist their current goaltender, Stuart Skinner. Other reasons? Even though Fleury's retirement seems final, it may appear to be a lost cause. Edmonton doesn't have a lot of cap space, and Fleury has had too many Stanley Cup wins. There may be no desire to continue an outstanding career…but there's still a story in Edmonton to pursue. At times, the desire fades away, the goaltender may retire, but the spark? May return.

Crosby, Shanahan, Rantanen And More NHLers Should Give Season 2 Of 'Faceoff' Intriguing Storylines
The NHL talent starring in the second season of Prime Video's behind-the-scenes series should make for some must-watch moments. NHL and Prime Video collaborated for a second season of their popular Faceoff: Inside the NHL streaming TV series. Advertisement Pittsburgh Penguins icon Sidney Crosby, Dallas Stars right winger Mikko Rantanen, brothers Matthew and Brady Tkachuk and Toronto Maple Leafs right winger William Nylander are some players featured in Season 2. Los Angeles Kings stars Anze Kopitar and Quinton Byfield, now-former Maple Leafs president Brendan Shanahan, retiring Minnesota Wild star goalie Marc-Andre Fleury and Columbus Blue Jackets players Sean Monahan and Zach Werenski are also in the series. That's a cast that has a wide variety of personalities. Seeing Hockey Hall of Famers like Shanahan and surefire Hall of Famers like Fleury and Crosby really adds to the appeal of this series. Marc-Andre Fleury and Sidney Crosby (Matt Blewett-Imagn Images) To be sure, these types of documentaries always have something for casual and hardcore hockey fans alike. And this season's dramatic moments – including the all-time goal-scoring race from Washington Capitals right winger Alexander Ovechkin, as well as the high drama of the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament – would be great to see behind the scenes. Advertisement But Rantanen getting a major surprise when the Colorado Avalanche traded him to the Carolina Hurricanes, which later sent him to the Stars, is an intriguing storyline. Of course, seeing Monahan, Werenski and the Blue Jackets playing out this season while grieving the loss of teammate Johnny Gaudreau and his brother, Matthew Gaudreau, could hopefully help the rest of the hockey community remember the brothers and continue their legacies. As we know, the NHL continues to try and market the personalities of the game – not always an easy task, given how guarded many players and management members can be – so this new series is welcome content for the game. The intricacies and subtleties of the sport are magnified in these documentaries, and that can only be a good thing for all involved. We want there to be a heightened sense of the stakes involved for people across the league, and we're drawn in by exclusive moments that will stay with fans for quite some time to come. As the hockey documentary genre evolves, it will be intriguing to see what new angles are explored in this season of the show. The main hook for the series is all about access that we might not otherwise have, but if this doc pushes the envelope in one regard or another, that will set it apart from your garden-variety sports series.

LLC linked to Marc-Andre Fleury makes biggest Twin Cities home purchase since 2023
A Wayzata home has been sold for $8.9 million to a company managed by recently retired Minnesota Wild goalie Marc-Andre Fleury. The 2020-built, 5,223 mansion on 1.62 acres of land near Lake Minnetonka sold to MAFVLF, LLC, of which the NHL legend is listed as the manager, according to state business records. The sale was first reported by the Minneapolis-St. Paul Business Journals, which says it's the biggest Twin Cities residential real estate deal since 2023. Sign up for our BREAKING PROPERTY newsletters Fleury retired following the Wild's playoffs exit at the start of May, ending a glittering 22-year pro hockey career that started when he was drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguin's No. 1 overall in the 2023 NHL Draft. A native of Quebec, Canada, Fleury won three Stanley Cups with the Penguins, in 2009, 2016 and 2017. After stints at the Las Vegas Golden Knights and Chicago Blackhawks, Fleury spend the last four seasons of his career at the Minnesota Wild. It was reported last year that Fleury was building a home in Vegas before deciding to stay another year in Minnesota. The Athletic reported in January that his plans may have changed and he was potentially debating whether to retire in Minnesota or return to his "full-time home" outside of Montreal, Quebec. The Wayzata house sale is the largest in the Twin Cities since former Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph sold his Minnesota home for $13.5 million.
