Marc-Andre Fleury faced off against his former team, the Pittsburgh Penguins, for the last time on Sunday, marking a significant moment in his career. Despite Fleury's storied past, it was Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby who shone, leading the Penguins to a 3-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild. Malkin kicked off the scoring with a power-play goal, while Crosby added two, including a fluke shot that deflected off a teammate. Crosby noted this was his third goal against Fleury, cementing their personal rivalry.

Fleury, reflecting on the game, expressed frustration at the loss, even while acknowledging the competitive spirit he shared with Crosby. The Wild managed a power-play goal to narrow the gap, yet Crosby sealed the game with an empty-netter. Overall, this game not only highlighted the Penguins' resilience but also underscored Fleury's enduring legacy in the league.
