Fleury could go through defenders so easily sometimes. He was deadly on a breakaway, he was really fast (just didn't have the leg length to get to the very top levels of speed). He had a good shot and excellent hands. He was a prick (usually in a good way for Calgary). He was actually pretty decent in the dot when he got a chance. He'd get down really low.
