In his possible final game, 40-year-old goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury led the Minnesota Wild to a thrilling 3-2 overtime victory against the Anaheim Ducks. Head coach John Hynes gave Fleury the nod to play in overtime, sparking excitement among fans. Fleury saved five shots, ensuring his team clinched a playoff spot against the Vegas Golden Knights. Despite this bittersweet moment, it appears he will spend the playoffs as a backup to Filip Gustavsson, ending a legendary career likely marked by three Stanley Cup wins.
It was fun, just to go one more time out there, and play the game I love, it was cool.
I had been sitting there for a few hours, and Hynsey let me go in, and I'm happy I got to play a bit more.
