Yeah, but let's not pile on Fleury, he's a really good poster, this was just an out of touch take for a legendary player passing away in a tragedy hours before the game.
If we were all curb stomped for the occasional poor take then we'd all be curb stomped.
Fleury, to put it in perspective, imagine if Mario Lemieux, Bobby Orr or Wayne Gretzky passed away in a helicopter crash right before an NHL game, how the broadcast would go. And those guys are way more removed from their last game than Kobe.
