This guy is everything you'd want not only in a hockey player but a person. Imagine having your job taken and having reporters everyday ask "how do you feel about that" He's handled unbelievably and will go down as one of the greatest penguins in history. His # will be retired as a penguin and he will be in the HOF. No one better then him.
I smile every penguins game this post season. And I smile because I am SO HAPPY that fleury has been playing so terrific and showing everyone that he's still worth a first overall pick.
I know people are going to hate on me for saying there's a chance, but if the pens keep Jarry and Murray they're going to be in a pretty tough spot in a few more years. Jarry has been amazing in the AHL and he's the same age as Murray so when Jarry is ready to come up he's going to want starter time as well. The pens are going to have to ship out one of those two eventually or they're just going to get lost to free agency. If the pens management have faith in their system and Tristan Jarry then I could see them either trading Murray or just keeping all 3 to basically force Vegas to take a Goalie from Pittsburgh rather than one of their Forwards/Defense. If the pens buy out Flower's contract like everyone is expecting then they lose Fleury basically for free and still don't have a solution for the Murray/Jarry problem and still have to worry about who vegas is going to take from them. If they trade Murray they risk Vegas taking Jarry as a future prospect and being left with just Fleury. If they keep all 3 they lose Murray (assuming Fleury doesn't waive his no move clause) for free but they're left with a goalie for now and a goalie for the future. I personally think trading Murray is the best long term option for the pens since Murray's value is likely through the roof since he's 22 and won the cup last year. You can use the trade to make up for whatever player you lose to Vegas in the expansion.
+Sultimate Jarry is why I've told my friend it would honestly be better to keep Fleury and trade Murray, because of his age I feel they may be able to get a lot more for Murray then Fleury.
Sultimate The issue with this thought process is that we don't really know what we have in Jarry. Yes, he's looked good in the AHL, but that doesn't guarantee NHL success. As of right now, as much as I love Fleury and desperately appreciate what he is currently doing for the Pens, he's the guy to go this year so you can protect the young guns from the expansion draft. As for what the Pens will lose otherwise to Vegas, it won't. e that damaging. All of the core pieces will be safe, so I'm not super concerned
Ok I am Leafs Fan 101 percent and a French Canadian from Northern Ontario. With that said, right from day one I have followed Mr. Fleury through out his career like I do for most players in the NHL. I don't think he is aware of how much he means for us Canadians and he is a humble classy man. Peace Brother!!!!
hes going to be gone no matter what... matt murray is younger, cap hit much friendlier. Not to mention they will probably get something decent for fleury
+Danny C. but they may be able to get more for Murray because of his age and Fleury should have enough good games in him to last until the stars are past their prime, and as I've said to my friend I do believe Fleury is the better goalie right now.
We all understand that NHL is a business and there are business decisions to be made. But just set that aside for a little bit and hope that Fleury carries this team to another Stanley Cup this year. That's a fairy tale that can only happen to this great human being.
Every Pens fan has loved Fleury since the very beginning but there's no way around the fact that he under achieved for years before Murray took over. I'm glad too see him back in top form & being the goaltender he can be night in & night out.
I am not so sure the team has under achieved for sure but lots of those games were the media and such liked to put blame on flower the team really left him out to dry not playing any defense etc...
They benched him after he played a stellar playoff run and played murray in the finals. I will never understand that. Fleury is so much better than murray
i don't care what anyone says when Fleury is in his prime and is relaxed and plays on a regular basis I think he is one of the best goalies in the world. He has been a god this playoffs and nobody can argue he's been one of the best if not the best goalie so far in the playoffs. He has the third best save percentage and his GAA is like 6th but the penguins have the most shots against average and Fleury has to face almost 40 shots a night and to be playing as good as he is while facing 40+ shots a night is incredible.
I am not positive but I swear I heard since Murray is under his rookie contract and has only played so many games and is so young the he doesn't have to be protected he is automatically protected because he is still a rookie.
bmlguy But he is less consistant. Also he is halfway through his carrer and murry is just starting. The reason Murry has taken over is because the Pens realize that Marc may be around for the next 5 or 10 years Murry will be around for 15-20. Gotta go with the longevity if the skill is close to the same
such a great human being, never believed any of the rumors. hes the best goalie the penguins ever had.

fleury is the greatest human being to ever exist. period.
Brandon Whitesell Ilya Bryzgalov might say something about that.
Zahid Mahmood He's a good guy!
Lol, sure
I'm not a fan of the Penguins in the slighest but damn I'd be lying if I said I didn't love Fleury.
The respect between both goalies is great!
I love that guy, i hope he finishes his career with the Penguins. He deserves it!
pghdave420 he is good, but old. we will see...

wtf would you trade Murray for? are you high? dumbest comment I've seen in a while!

He helped lead the pens to a Stanley Cup and now he's helping the Vegas Golden Knights to a Stanley Cup.
Please don't ever trade Fleury. I wouldn't be able to handle it.
sportsfan 95 well thats what I said about Subban :'(
hes going to be gone no matter what... matt murray is younger, cap hit much friendlier. Not to mention they will probably get something decent for fleury
sportsfan 95 *cough* DALLAS *cough*
sportsfan NOPE

Fleury is such a nice guy
The stupid expansion draft put Pittsburgh in such a bad spot
in flower we trust 🐧
his name actually means in french for english loose translation SNOW PEDAL or Snow flake you choose.
This hasn't aged well...
damn, beat me to it
that james neal shot is ironic today GO KNIGHTS!!!!
Gotta love Flower and he's an ace and total pro. Rutherford has his hands full come the offseason. Can Murray/Jarry carry this team moving forward?
Every Pens fan has loved Fleury since the very beginning but there's no way around the fact that he under achieved for years before Murray took over. I'm glad too see him back in top form & being the goaltender he can be night in & night out.

#respect
Even if he's not in Pittsburgh, he's still the greatest goalie ever
2021 the Pens asked the knights if they would trade him back!
Party on Mr. Fleury!
fleury is a great guy and a legendary goalie true inspiration
i don't care what anyone says when Fleury is in his prime and is relaxed and plays on a regular basis I think he is one of the best goalies in the world. He has been a god this playoffs and nobody can argue he's been one of the best if not the best goalie so far in the playoffs.

I hope he will stay
Adam the penguins fan Adam Either him or Murray has to be exposed for the expansion draft though
I am not positive but I swear I heard since Murray is under his rookie contract and has only played so many games and is so young the he doesn't have to be protected he is automatically protected because he is still a rookie.
I think you're right
Best goalie tandem in the league, don't @ me
Brandon Fox no doubt
Brandon Fox @
Brandon Fox Pittsburgh, Nashville, Los Angeles, and Tampa bay have the best goalie tandems in the league
Bobby T. You're a rebel, I like you
Tbiblaine23 Chicago too, until they traded Darling.
why fleury is on vegas
26
I hope who ever's reading this is having a great day.
LMAO WHY DOES EVERYONE ASK THIS AND YES YA CAN
Thanks bleach
I wish we had him back!! So do a lot of other Penguin fans!
Just keep your head up Fleury, to me you and Murray are the best goalies in the league. Thanks for all the help on the Penguins. I will miss you.😞😪
Murray is gonna be the next Fleury. Fleury is a god as of right now but Fleury is getting older and older. Were gonna need Murray.
didt age very well hehe
DONT LEAVE PLEASE
love the flower . gonna be real hard watching him leave after this season. whatever team gets him is going to be so lucky.
One of them will be taken by the expansion draft
If only vegas didn't expand...😪
Who doesn't love fleury?
BrandonMoretti caps fans?
Anyone who gets shutout by him too
Golden Ninja how can they not respect him
Bring back fleury for his last years in the nhl , Pittsburgh.
Lol I like how RUclips suggested this to me now when he's with Vegas and it confused the hell out of me until I looked at the upload date
TheHumanSpider
Same here lol
Not sure they can say the same now
He is in Vegas
James Neal, the guy who gave Fleury a concussion and knocked him out of starting position is now a forward on his team. Funny world
I know I'm stupid but you gotta have some punctuation in the titles.
what an inovation hel get when he retires. he's done so much for the franchise
I come from the future.... he's on vegas D':
Nobody expected him to be with vegas
I think fleury is amazing and a think Murray is better than price. Fleury getting traded will help him.
The best goalie tag team all time Murray fluery
2 bad a year or 2 later he's a golden knight
Fleury is a super start goalie
Fleury is honestly the best goaltender in the NHL. It's really sad he got traded to Vegas. He will always be a penguin. Let's go pens
Its paying off in my hockey pool
I've lived in Pittsburgh all my life and the only good pundit/announcer weve ever had is mike lange
And somehow josh yohe is the worst and that's saying something
This still stings.
Oh how this video has aged.
Even if fleury wins a cup... pens have a number one in Murray. So use his 4mill on other players! It's a business. But atm flower is doing gr8
Fleury come back please 😓
If penguins win cup i hope he wins the conn smythe
@Sawyer Dingman the Conn Smythe trophy is the playoff MVP nothing to do with the regular season.
I only hope Fleury can saty in Penguins but he...........
Should’ve kept him over Murray. Obvious now, said it then too
And Then Vegas came
Too bad he got picked by Vegas
🌼💪🏻
fleury is better than murray
bmlguy But he is less consistant. Also he is halfway through his carrer and murry is just starting. The reason Murry has taken over is because the Pens realize that Marc may be around for the next 5 or 10 years Murry will be around for 15-20. Gotta go with the longevity if the skill is close to the same
And then Vegas happend
Lol
15th
Ronin #11 H Who cares
