Marc-Andre Fleury and Jordan Binnington are on opposites ends of the goalie spectrum. One is one of the most well-respected goalies in the world, and the other most definitely isn't.
Fleury Talks Near-Fight With Binnington
Marc-Andre Fleury expressed just last week that he wanted to fight before the end of his career.
-
He almost got the chance last night, when St. Louis Blues hotheaded goaltender Jordan Binnington provoked him.
Unfortunately, the referees broke it up, but it was still a wild story.
-
Now, Fleury has spoken up about the actual on-ice occurrences, and he didn't make Binnington look so good!
That one was pretty quick. One of the guys said (Binnington) hit them in the nuts, in the nutsack. Can I say nutsack? Then when I saw him throw another one at our guy, that was the time.
I'm not surprised. I've seen Jordan do a few things in his career, that's why I went. I made my decision pretty quick.

Wow he's seen Binnington do a few things? We all know what that means - Binnington is an embarrassment league wide.
The Department of Player Safety announced that Binnington would be facing a meeting, which likely implies a suspension.
Maybe an actual punishment will make him fix these ridiculous outbursts in his game.
