Fleury is 31, and was never that good to begin with. I don't see him being an above-average #1 goalie when he's 36+ years old.
And even at his peak, he has had some of the worst playoff performances I've ever seen.
I didn't even cheer for either team, but the Battle of Pennsylvania playoff series a few years back with Bryzgalov vs Fleury is still seared into my memory as literally the worst playoff series I've ever witnessed. Him getting replaced by a 400 year old Tomas Vokoun is also a salient highlight.
No thanks.
