In his post on the former Twitter platform X, Luongo commented on and reposted Michael Russo's tweet. <blockquote class=twitter-tweet><p lang=en dir=ltr>I mean come on what are we even doing here?????? <a href=https://t.co/ltHfPOA79E>https://t.co/ltHfPOA79E</a>— Strombone (@strombone1) <a href=https://twitter.com/strombone1/status/1728205269224808518?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw>November 25, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js charset=utf-8> Goaltender's use their facemasks very often to display special quotes, or pictures of animals and/or family members. Fleury is no exception to doing so throughout his career. Maybe it is time that the NHL and the NHLPA come together to find a common ground to something that Bettman has stirred up unnecessarily.
