Marc Andre Fleury to retire

[Mrfenn92]

Great career to a fun dude

 

[NVious]

Sad to see all the Blackhawk legends retire.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Really ? That's a scoop.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Such a f***ing great personality and had a number of fantastic seasons.

I’ll always remember his save on Lidstrom in the final seconds of game 7 to seal the Pens first cup in the Crosby era.

 

[dr robbie]

Man, did not see this one coming.

 

[Empoleon8771]

I was hoping he'd sign a 1 day contract to retire with the Penguins, but happy retirement either way!

 

[Gizmoskevich]

I wish they had the sword picture in there

 

[jetsforever]

Didn't we know that already?

 

[Zirakzigil]

Love this guy. Classy and a great teammate. Hope he joins the Pens organization.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Is the reporting on this credible?
MAF seems like the best guy in the league, everyone loves him. He's been in the league longer than a lot of HFers have been alive, so I'd say he's earned his retirement. All the best, Flower!

 

[thrillhous]

Seems like a hasty decision. I hope he actually thought this one through.

 

[Frank Drebin]

I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye

 

[Coffee]

One of my role models.

Love the dude

 

[Chainshot]

Crazy that he's been in the league longer than my soon to be legal to drink elder child has been alive.

 

[BertCorbeau]

The last goalie to be taken 1st OA.

Made a career of it.

 

[Ugene Magic]

 

[Summer Rose]

What a legend and awesome career. Only player whose jersey I bought who wasn't a player on my team. It's a Knights jersey, and his tenure there was short and "interesting" to say the least, but I love that I have it.

Happy retirement to him!

 

[PhysicalGraffiti]

Absolute legend that I'm glad to say I've been able to watch.

I was very happy and fortunate I got to see him start a game this season with it being his last.

Selfishly I hope he changes his mind and goes for another run. He's a great personality and great for the sport. Maybe he has something lined up for teaching or mentoring, because he has tons of knowledge to pass on.

He's definitely earned his retirement though and hope he enjoys the time off.

I think we can all agree we’re going to look back and remember him as a Blackhawk

Kind of like Buffalo Sabres legend Jaroslav Halak, eh?

 

[featherhawk]

Legend, great career, HOF is imminent.

 

[66-30-33]

Congrats. I guess he joins the Wild in some type of office job?

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Happy trails to the legend
