He didn't have a good game 1, but I don't think Game 2 was a bad game for him. He gave up one bad goal by overcomitting (though the crease defense was awful). The other was horrible crease defense on a pass no goalie could keep up with. The Orpik goal was a fortuitous deflection and not something you can blame Fleury for.As it is it's his to lose if Vegas wins the Cup.
I can't see Vegas winning the Cup if Fleury continues not playing well.
Fleury is not the reason Vegas lost game 2. Vegas lost game 2 because they had lower energy offensively after the Neal goal and the defense was by any standards, but especially by Vegas' own standards an absolute disaster the first two periods. And by the time the score was 3-1 Vegas just didn't have the footspeed and decision making with the puck to break Washington's trap game.
I mean you can make the argument that if Fleury hadn't overcommitted on his bad goal that game could've been in OT. But conversely Vegas failed to capitalize on a 5 on 3 and on what should've been a slam dunk goal on one of Vegas' only high quality chances in the third period, Tuch rushed the shot instead of taking care to lift the puck higher. That's not to say Holtby's save wasn't incredible. It was. But Tuch took chances on Holtby being able to react fast enough and it cost him. Regardless, Fleury certainly didn't get much help in Game 2 until the third but at that point Vegas couldn't generate the chances or finish on the few they did have to even it up.
Holtby had a stronger game but so did the defense in front of him.
