Stanley Cup Moments: Marc-Andre Fleury saves Cup for Penguins
With the Pittsburgh Penguins leading Game 7 of the 2009 Stanley Cup Final by one goal, Marc-Andre Fleury faced a dying-second showdown with the Detroit Red Wings Nicklas Lidstrom, with the Cup on the line.
I remember seeing that wide open net with the rebound heading right to the Red Wing player. My heart sank for a second because it really looked like they were going to tie it with a second left. Then Fleury was suddenly there and the horn sounded.

It will be more fun if the Bruins are in it…
Such a crazy year. The close game with the Super Bowl, and then this happened? One of the best years for Pittsburgh sports thats for sure.
10 years dam
And he ended Babcocks career again.

What a finish.
Number 2 thought he needed all the love
I watched this in a room full of Red Wings fans, never underestimate the power of the Flower.
Greatest/most clutch block in NHL history.
The end of a era
most overrated highlight of all time
Sidney Crosby and the penguins? Crosby was on the bench for the entire 3rd period
And Fleury got win #500 tonight. Against the Habs. In Montreal. By shutout. 👏🏻
Pittsburgh should be ashamed of themselves… This guy gave you everything yet even in 2022 he's still elite goaltender yet you sold him out 🤦♂️
I was at this game as a wings fan. Worst sports moment of my life 😢
