Conflicting Reports Surround Marc-Andre Fleury Reported Contract with Wild

Marc-Andre Fleury has not signed a one-year contract to return to the Minnesota Wild, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.

ESPN's Kevin Weekes previously reported Fleury had agreed to a deal.

Minnesota acquired Fleury from the Chicago Blackhawks for a conditional first-round pick in a March trade. The move made sense from both team's perspectives, as Chicago was not a contender and the Wild added a proven goaltender for their playoff push.

After all, this past year marked the franchise's ninth postseason appearance in a 10-year stretch, but it never made it past the second round in any of its previous eight appearances.
