Colorado Avalanche

The Colorado Avalanche can certainly explore the idea of Marc-Andre Fleury.

The Colorado Avalanche are an outstanding team. They currently lead the Central Division with a record of 26-8-3 for 55 standings points. There is a good chance that they run away with that division title and go into the playoffs with real aspirations of winning the Stanley Cup. However, things might be even easier for them if they add an elite goalie.

Pavel Francouz and Darcy Kuemper are having good years for the Avalanche. However, Fleury brings a different attitude when it comes to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He has been a part of the playoffs in every year of his career and has his name on the Cup three times.

He has also been in the Final an extra two times, including with both the Pittsburgh Penguins and Vegas Golden Knights. It is clear that winning with multiple different franchises is something that he can do. The Avalanche would be no different.

As good as Francouz and Kuemper are, Fleury would give them an edge in almost every series that they play. They would go from Stanley Cup contenders to even bigger Stanley Cup contenders if that is even possible. Seeing him there with all of that talent that they have would be so cool.
