At the season-ending press conference, Minnesota Wild general manager Bill Guerin made it very public that if he so wishes, there is a spot with the team if Marc-Andre Fleury decides to take his talents to the front office.

Is it going to be a goaltending development role? A goaltending scout? Just someone to provide good vibes and eventually work his way towards being a general manager himself one day? We’ll find out, if it even happens.
