I hope the Pens stick with Fleury for sure

Fleury is awful. Mentally fragile. Weak link on a great team, while a stronger link is riding the pine...

It's like loud arenas freak Fleury out. He's fine in the regular season, but as soon as the playoffs get going and crowds are really rowdy he pulls this kind of garbage.

I'm sure Fleury will stay in net for the entire series, would not be surprised to see the Pens lose because of it, or at least have the series stretch to 7 games. MAF has always been flaky but after the debacle of the Philly series I don't think he ever recovered. He has zero confidence, none.

Terrible goaltending saps even the best teams, you can see how the Pens are unsure of what to do in their own zone, very tentative.

Can Pittsburgh beat Boston, Chicago, LA, or St. Louis with Fleury?

Vokoun has been very solid in the games I've seen him play. It's that stupid "he's the guy" mentality like what's going on for the Canucks. Luongo has played really well, but he's not going to start.

Can they even beat the Islanders? I'd say 50/50 on that.

I'm not torn, i want the flames to get the best pick possible. Iggy can win the cup next year. He is not retiring and will more than likely stay in Pitt. Gives the Pens the off season to upgrade on Fleury.

If and when Pitt falls short this year because of goaltending, Iggy should be on the phone to Kipper, trying to convince him on one more year.

He's been solid, but Bylsma thinks that the only way they can win a Cup is if Fleury is playing well, so he has to let Fleury play his way out of this funk against a mediocre team before they face real challenges. Unfortunately, Fleury is playing so poorly that the Islanders are presenting a real challenge.

Fleury is literally putting pucks in his own net, these are gift goals. Do that against a real time like Chicago and forget it, you're out in 4 straight.

Good call. Do the Isles think they're the Canucks?

I've never seen an embellishment call until this day.
