MAF gets a shutout and 3 standing ovations in final game in MTL

[BenchBrawl]

Happy for him! Well deserved

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Pretty awesome. It’s been fun to have him on the Wild. He hasn’t always been good but it’s been fun to have a legend on the team.

 

[hamzarocks]

As a tribute to his career
I wouldn’t expect you to understand

It also has to do with him being french/from quebec and one of the last french/quebex origin legends in the league.

Obviously MTL fans would not be cheering for a random third liner whose about to end his career.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

He's one of my all time favorite goalies.

Classy person and an incredible career.

 

[daver]

Reminds me of the 2003 world Juniors in Halifax when the US goalie got a huge ovation from the crowd for standing on his head in their 2-1 SF loss to Canada. He looked like he was surprised and a bit emotional from the response.

 

[BHD]

Woof… the amount of bad games he had as a Penguin in that building.

If there's one thing Montreal is great at its pumping the tires of mediocre players

 

[MuckOG]

Great moment last night ...very cool and classy of the MTL fans.

I’d expect nothing less from a classy Bruins fan

Why cheer for a guy who didn't want to play for you and also just beat you?

Do you really not understand why fans in Montreal are cheering for Marc-Andre Fleury on his farewell tour?

Like, I get if you mihg tnot like him personally, but how do you not understand why fans would cheer for him?

 

[TMLeafer]

Wait, you're allowed to cheer at a hockey game??

Nice ovation, great career MAF

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Wait, you're allowed to cheer at a hockey game??

You're supposed to be constantly yelling SHOOOOOOOOOOOT!

Otherwise, players don't know when.

 

[Rodgerwilco]

If there's one thing Montreal is great at its pumping the tires of mediocre players

Why even bother making these kind of class-less nonsense comments?

If there's one thing Montreal is great at its pumping the tires of mediocre players

They'll surely retire his number.

You cannot be mediocre and be #2 all-time in wins. You just seem like a bitter fan of a rival team right now and it's sad.
