Goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury is going full circle.
Fleury helped the Pittsburgh Penguins win three Stanley Cup titles before he went to the Vegas Golden Knights in the 2017 expansion draft and led that team to the Final in its first season. He then played for the Chicago Blackhawks and Minnesota Wild before retiring this past season with the second-most wins in NHL history.
But the Penguins are giving fans one last chance to see the goalie in a Pittsburgh uniform. Fleury, 40, signed a professional tryout agreement with the team that drafted him No. 1 overall in 2003.
Fans lined up to see him practice on Friday, Sept. 26, and he’s scheduled to play part of the NHL preseason game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday.
Fleury told reporters he was given the option of which period to play and chose the third so he had a chance of winning the game.
Saturday’s game is on cable television. Here’s how to watch the last outing from the likely Hall of Famer.
