Marc-Andre Fleury Gets Emotional Talking About Possible Last Game Ever in Pittsburgh
Fleury's Possible Last Season Takes an Emotional Turn
As Marc-Andre Fleury approaches the end of his illustrious career, there are growing hints that this season may well be his last.
In a recent interview, he choked up while discussing the idea of playing his final game in Pittsburgh.
"I didn't want it to be in every city like, 'Oh, this could be your last game," Fleury said.
"That being said, I know it could be. So, at the same time, maybe I would have regret not doing those moments. So I've got to enjoy little things like that.
"But I don't know, I don't want to be thinking every day. I'm soft, too. I don't need all these emotions."
