After finishing practice with Wild, Fleury stays on the ice to play with Pittsburgh teenagers
This man is a true gem. We're going to miss him when he retires.
Don't look now but Pittsburgh Penguins legend Marc-Andre Fleury is back in town.
Fleury and the Minnesota Wild are scheduled to take on the Penguins in Pittsburgh tomorrow and it's always a special occasion when Flower is back in PA. Today, after finishing his full 60 minute practice with the Wild, Fleury hopped back onto the ice to take some reps with the teens from the Penguins' local youth camp.

How cool is that!?
What's even better is that off-camera Fleury reportedly approached the team's goalie and apologized to them for stealing the spotlight. The best part? That young goaltender wears #29 in honor of his hero... Marc-Andre Fleury.
Fleury's family will all be in attendance for what's expected to be his final game in Pittsburgh tomorrow evening.
Once again... we're really gonna miss this guy when he finally retires.
