Hold on a second. There are soft bad angle goals and there are bad angle goals that go in because it's not humanly possibly to cover every single little wicket the puck can get in through. I thought his positioning was fine there. Not to mention he played a good game.
I'm all for critiquing the team win or lose. One pet peeve of mine on this board is how a shootout win or loss will completely change what you can get away with posting after the game is over. At the same time Fleury's been fine seriously.
I think Fleury is definitely still working on problems between his ears, but about 70% of the time people ***** about him I wonder what exactly they want him to do.
For all the criticism Fleury is getting, if there's something he has definitely improved on over the years it's his rebound control.
From a goalie who was very rarely beaten clean but had a major issue with his rebounds, he's now become more than fairly good for the latter but he's beaten pretty often high glove.
On a side note I was looking up for how long Gilles Meloche was within the organization and apparently...
take a seat guys.
..he's been there since 1989, only as a goaltending coach full time since the last lockout, if I remember correctly, but that would mean he still went through 3 coaches changes, quite impressive.
BTW, I'm not saying he isn't a good coach, but in retrospect, maybe changing Fleury's routine wouldn't have been such a bad thing. Oh well
