Wild Head Coach Makes Controversial Decision on Marc-Andre Fleury
Marc-Andre Fleury is currently in the final year of his contract, and at 39 years old, this season could very well be his last in the NHL.
Tonight, the Minnesota Wild are facing off against the Pittsburgh Penguins, and it could potentially mark Fleury's last game in the city.
Head coach John Hynes has made a decision that might not sit well with fans from both teams.

Fleury Left Out of His Potentially Last Game in Pittsburgh
Hynes has announced that
Filip Gustavsson will be the starting goalie tonight against the Penguins.
Fleury, who spent 12 seasons with the team and won three Stanley Cups, will watch the game from the bench. This decision isn't appreciated by both Penguins and Wild fans.
This could be Fleury's last chance to play in front of Penguins fans, but Hynes has made a different choice.
