There's no denying that NHL goaltenders are a unique breed. Over the years, we've heard and witnessed several bizarre superstitions.
Last night, one of those bizarre superstitions was on full display when Minnesota Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury displayed his tight relationships with his goal posts.
The Wild were aiming to even the series following a heartbreaking setback in game one yesterday night in Minnesota.
Last night, Vladimir Tarasenko hit the post with a shot, and as the puck departed the zone, Fleury was seen channeling his inner Patrick Roy by stroking his posts and saying, "Thank you."
