Marc-André Fleury is back in Quebec for personal reasons and should join his team on the road on Tuesday.
So reports journalist Michael Russo, who covers the Minnesota Wild for The Athletic. The Quebec Cerberus would have taken the plane Sunday morning in the direction of Montreal.
The move comes the day after the Wild lost 6-5 in overtime to the Buffalo Sabres. The Wild led 5-4 late in the third period, but Dahlin tied the game. A goal described as “stupid” by a discouraged, dejected Fleury, who spoke to the local media.
“We scored five goals… It should be a win every time. I feel bad for the guys. »
Also according to Russo, the keeper was muttering to himself as he removed his gear. His teammate, Matt Dumba, tried to comfort him. It is also reported that Fleury was seen, concerned, on the phone outside the amphitheater before the meeting.
