It certainly looks like Minnesota Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury is preparing as if tomorrow evening will be his final appearance in Montreal's famed Bell Centre, home of the Montreal Canadiens.
The veteran goalie recently purchased tickets for 24 family members to watch him play against the Canadiens tomorrow in Montreal, leaving many to wonder if this is in fact the final time he'll play in his hometown.
From Wild insider Michael Russo:
“More than usual for this one. But still got to get the win. Got to get the 2 points & that’s what matters. And hopefully you can put on a good show for them.”

Fleury is in the final season of a two year, $7 million deal that pays him $3.5 million against the NHL's salary cap. If this is indeed his final season in the NHL then you know tomorrow night in Montreal will be a special occasion for the future Hall of Famer.
