And I still don't think Fleury carried this team enough to earn it.
Are you going to leave it at that or would it hurt you to elaborate?

You have a responsibility to the public discourse, and you fail miserably.

I don't know how else to expand on that, mate. His stats were stellar, sure. But I never got the sense the kid put the team on his shoulders and carried it. He was solid, but nothing more.

Here is what I believe is the paradigm that would be effective and what I would love to see, and you're going to laugh because Fox News is my model. What Fox has done is they've got a guy, Roger Ailes, who's passionate and has created a model for a 24-hour news station that makes money based on a point of view... Using Fox's model, find someone with the passion and the huevos to just lay it on the line - not in a partisan way, not in the pursuit of political power and political gain, but in the pursuit of credibility. In the pursuit of being a judge, an arbiter, and earning the trust of the audience over time as an oversight to the shenanigans of the political world.

So you're saying that between him and Zetterberg you could make a definitive decision between the two of them? How about Fleury against ANYONE from the Red Wings? Fleury was definitely the standout player on the Penguins in the postseason, and he was the best goaltender in the postseason, bar none. First in wins, second in GAA, first in total saves (by a wide margin), second in save percentage, tied for first in shutouts. He certainly and quietly carried the Penguins.

Very quietly. And then they very loudly lost. Want me to make a distinction between Zetterberg and Fleury? A stanley cup ring.

I'm just saying. Yes, Fleury played fantastic. But I never felt like he'd picked up the team and ran with it.

Fucker deserves a raise, though.
