It’s no secret that Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury is full of personality, and he once against put it on full display ahead of his team's’ road game against his former Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night.
Vegas is in the midst of a Metropolitan swing, but the former Penguin won’t be gearing up between the pipes. After a rough start to the season, Fleury will play against the Washington Capitals before getting the night off in Pittsburgh, where Malcolm Subban will take over duties. When asked about having to ride pine, Fleury gave a priceless answer.
Gotta love The Flower!
Regardless of the decision by head coach Gerrard Gellant, we have a feeling Fleury isn’t too concerned about it. The guy is cool as a cucumber and genrally easy going, and if you need any more proof of that let us just remind you of this story from the Stanley Cup.
Through three games this season, Fleury holds a 1-2 record with a 3.92 GAA and .841%. He’ll look to bounce back this week, it just sucks that it won't be against his old squad.
