Report: Multiple teams reached out with contract offer to Marc-Andre Fleury
The NHL's goalie market is so razor thin, teams are still reaching out to non-active goaltenders trying to convince them to come back. There's been multiple reports that Marc-Andre Fleury has heard from a number of teams about the potential of an NHL comeback.
Probably not surprising but hearing that some teams have checked in on Marc-Andre Fleury to see if there’s any chance at all he would consider playing again. Again not surprised teams with goalie needs would want to check on it.

Fleury, 41, last played with the Minnesota Wild during the 2024-25 season, posting a 14-9-1 record, along with a 2.93 goals against average and .899 save percentage. The future hall-of-famer stepped away from the game but did come back this preseason, to sign a one-week contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins and appear in part of a preseason game so he could retire a Penguin.
Fleury wanted nothing more but to finish of his playing days with the Penguins. He spent so many years playing alongside Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang, and it became obvious over the years that he never wanted to leave.
As far as teams that reached out this season, look no further than Stan Bowman and the Edmonton Oilers. They've reached out on numerous occasions, and most recently when Tristan Jarry went down for a few weeks.
The Vegas Golden Knights likely reached out before signing Carter Hart, and don't be surprised if the Montreal Canadiens checked in.
Fleury is happy living the family life and don't expect to see him in net anytime soon, unless Team Canada comes calling for the Olympics.
