One of his clients happens to be none other than noted trade chip (if he chooses) in Marc-Andre Fleury. When it comes to being dealt by the Chicago Blackhawks this year, Fleury holds all the cards regarding where, if and when he gets traded.
So, when Walsh took to Twitter last night, mere hours before the trade deadline and posted a flower emoji, many may wonder if it's a precursor to a deal being done that would move Fleury to a contender today.
Fleury, 37, has played 45 games for the Blackhawks this season, posting a record of 19-21-5 with 4 shutouts. a .908 save percentage and a 2.95 goals-against average for the struggling Hawks. He certainly would be a game-changer for anyone that acquires him, but the question remains does he want to move on from Chicago?
