    I've read that the Flames have contacted the Pens about Fluery.

    The team will be mostly intact for next year as far as free agency. The 3 biggest names there are Ben Lovejoy, Matt Cullen and Jeff Zatkoff. So, unless they decide to move via trades, we should be good to go to defend The Title.
