Marc-Andre Fleury Placed On Injured Reserve
2 years agoMinnesota Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury (upper body) has landed on Injured Reserve. He missed Wednesday's practice after producing a 23-save effort in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Nashville, and Fleury now can't return to the active roster for at least seven days. Backup goalie Filip Gustavsson will be between the pipes for Thursday's matchup against Pittsburgh, looking to improve a 1-3-1 record. The team has added Zane McIntyre from the AHL to the roster to make up for the loss of Fleury. Fleury, who is 6-4-1 for the year, suffered the injury at a very bad time, as he had just hit some nice form, producing a 1.62 goals-against average with a .943 save percentage and one shutout this month.
