Yeah. Fleury had and has the faults that go along with his virtues.
He never listened to anybody when they told him he was too small. He never listened to anybody when they told him he wouldn't make the NHL. He never listened to anybody when they told him he couldn't be an impact player. He never listened to anybody when they told him to lie down and accept abuse, or when they told him he couldn't overcome it.
Unfortunately, he never listened to anybody about some other things when he
should have listened.
You have to take the rough with the smooth.
