Marc-André Fleury is one of the most respected individuals in the entire NHL. When I use the term 'individuals,' I mean everyone, not just players.
He has always been a role model. His kindness, generosity, and, of course, his athletic prowess have made him one of the most well-known and appreciated faces.
Now, he would like to think about himself and his loved ones, and then Gary Bettman shuts the door in his face. It's very hard to understand.
So Bettman threatens to fine Fleury for a mask? But you know what? Fleury will still wear his mask, and he'll accept the fine. Take that, Bettman!
Congratulations to Marc-André for doing what he feels is right! NHL players should create an internal Go Fund Me to pay his fine, to show their support for standing up against a rule that has no place in 2023.
