Marc-Andre Fleury receives a big promise from Pat McAfee
Minnesota Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury has been making media appearances recently, including a feature on the Pat McAfee show on ESPN.
Fleury recently surpassed legendary goaltender Patrick Roy on the all-time wins list as the Minnesota Wild shut out the New York Islanders 5-1.
During his appearance on the McAfee show, the former NFL kicker promised to donate $250,000 to a charity of Fleury's choice if he scored a goalie-goal this season.
Fleury accepted the offer graciously and made a joke that a few years ago McAfee had promised $100,000, so it was great to see him increase the amount he was willing to donate.
Fleury continues to prove his worth as a future Hall of Famer in the NHL, and with the season far from over, he will have more chances to extend his lead over Patrick Roy.
Also giving himself a shot to get that treasured goalie-goal.
