According to information from the reputable Darren Dreger, here is a very interesting trade that was ready to be announced and was cancelled at the last second.

In short, here is the trade in question:

-Brendan Hagel
-Marc-André Fleury
TO CHICAGO:
-Petr Mrazek
-Matthew Knies
-First-round picks (2)
-Brendan Hagel
-Marc-André Fleury
TO CHICAGO:
-Petr Mrazek
-Matthew Knies
-First-round picks (2)
Wow, this would have been big! This information resurfaced after we learned that apparently, Brendan Shanahan has been blocking trades concluded by GM Kyle Dubas over the past few years.
«Here's a trade that didn't happen. Chicago and Toronto discussed Hagel and Fleury, with the Leafs, for Mrazek, Matthew Knies, and first-round picks. It never reached a stage where Fleury was officially asked to waive. Toronto declined based on the future contracts involved.»
