Fleury was probably the most talented and exciting player ever to wear this jersey. Also totally damaged as a person, he had a brutal path in his life. 99% of people can't fathom his trauma. He's a complicated dude with a compelling story. I still root for him even as he pisses everyone off. He's a hero of mine. My favorite player growing up. I'm totally biased for sure. Tkachuk is a spoiled runt in my view. Silver spoon, born on third base and given every opportunity. Fleury is a warrior and a survivor. Totally different stories. Comparing them at all is disingenuous at best. Similar team breaking antics but at least know their stories. I give Fleury a huge break, rightly or wrongly. A lot of people would've straight up killed themselves. He willed himself to succeed and become an amazing player. Apples and oranges
