Marc-Andre Fleury has never stopped setting records in the NHL. He did it again Sunday night with a 5-4 win over the Sharks.
With the win, the Wild clinched a playoff berth, earning the goalkeeper his 16th consecutive spring participation. No other athlete has a similar streak.
Fleury can thank the Blackhawks for moving him earlier this season.
Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin could have followed in his footsteps, but they were injured in 2011. This injury terminated their postseason streak.
