Separate Styles, Same Great Saves (VIDEO) Can This Record-Setting Tandem Take Their Team to the Top?
Making the playoffs with the Minnesota Wild gives Marc-André Fleury his 16th consecutive appearance, setting the record for longest playoff streak by an individual in ANY sport. Not just hockey. ALL the sports. Also, give the man 2 wins in those playoffs, and he secures 3rd spot for winningest goaltender in Stanley Cup Playoffs history.
You want more? This being Fleury's 3rd contending team, he would need 5 wins to join the elite list of 10 goaltenders to have 5+ playoff wins with 3+ different clubs. With Pittsburgh, he had 62 wins, and 28 with Vegas. His new goalie partner, Cam Talbot, had 7 wins with Edmonton, 5 with Calgary, and 3 with the Wild, so he only needs 2 wins to become the 10th goaltender in NHL history (and only active). Talk about a tag-teaming tandem!
