Fleury Doesn't Get the Start in Potential Last Game in Pittsbught
While it hasn't been formally announced, Marc-Andre Fleury has been hinting about retirement after this season. If that is the case, last night's game in Pittsburgh would have been the last that Fleury appeared in front of the crowd that he was drafted to and spent the majority of his career playing for.
However, he didn't get the start in what could have been a farewell game. Wild Head Coach John Hynes said this was part of the plan all along.
However, Fleury did note that he was a little surprised and disappointed that he wouldn't get the start in Pittsburgh last night.
