Fantasy Analysis
The revelation is a bit surprising, considering Marc-Andre Fleury saw the ice just one time following the first four games of the Penguins' playoff run. Both Fleury and fellow goalie Tomas Vokoun are under contract next season, so it'll be interesting to see how the situation shakes out in the coming months. (Updated 6/9/13).

Visions of Vezina Trophy Finalist danced through Marc-Andre Fleury's mind before a late-season slump doused any such thought. The Flower strung together a 22-2-2 run which ended in late March. The Penguins and their goalie never seemed to recover from back-to-back Islanders losses in which Fleury gave up nine goals before actually playing worse in the postseason. The Pittsburgh netminder won a career-high 42 games and his 2.36 goals-against average was significantly better than his career mark (2.68). The Pens brought in Tomas Vokoun to cover for the Flower during rough patches, something that could actually benefit his peripheral numbers in 2012-13. (Updated 8/14/12)
