Why I Think Flower Deserves The Conn Smythe



He was simply more useful to the team. No Geno and the Pens survive, no Flower the Pens are in trouble.

If we had some crappy goalie in the Stanley Cup then there's no chance we would of won, no Geno and there's still a chance, since we still have Sergei, and Sidney, and Jordan and eveyone else to pick up the slack.

The point is Fleury is the reason why Pens won. That's why he should have that maple leaf displayed on his mantle, rather then it being on Geno's.

I would like it very, very much if you reading this right now recommend this so that way more people can see it and give thier opinions in the matter.

What a Game by Fleury, What a Series by Fleury, What a Postseason by Fleury!!

Marc-Andre might of just had the two most clutch games of his life. He made saves when they were needed the most. For example game 6, there's a breakaway and it looks like the Wings have tied it up but NO, Fleury denies him and saves the game.  Then in game 7 he holds the Wings to one goal. it seemed like you couldn't get a puck shaped grain of sand past him. Now you may say "what about Fleury in game 5?" that was an off night by him.

It looked like that he couldn't play well at all in the Joe, as evidenced by game 5. But Fleury was saving the best for last, having (as previously mentioned) his best game all series if not all playoffs. And proving that an arena can't intimidate him.

This postseason has really proved to everyone that Fleury is a great goalie, outplaying Cam Ward (He just recently got his liqour license back) and Chris Osgood two goalies who some thought would easily outplay Fleury, bur he outplayed him. He also outplayed that goalie phenom Varlamov for Washington.

I look forward to many more years with Flower in the net stopping pucks.
