After winning his first ever Vezina trophy as a member of the Vegas Golden Knights, immediately after Fleury was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks for almost nothing.
During the offseason Fleury was obviously unhappy with the way things went and considered retirement instead of moving to Chicago to play for the Hawks. He ended up playing and until the trade deadline and was again dealt to the Minnesota Wild, where it looks like Fleury has rediscovered his love for the game.
Since joining the Wild, Fleury is 6-1-0 with a 2.59GAA and .921SV%, and is loving every minute of it. He recently with the playoff clinch of the Wild set a new record across all major sports leagues with the longest active playoff streak at 16 straight years.
After the Minnesota Wild's practice today he was asked what he plans to do next season and if he planned to retire, which he responded:
«I would like to play at least another season. I decided that recently, I still like to play, I still have fun, the body still holds. Most of the time, but yes, another season and we will see after.
Do you think Fleury will stay with Minnesota or continue on his travels and find a new team to call home for a season? Perhaps a return to Pittsburgh?
