Marc-Andre Fleury has been bonding with new goaltender coach Mike Bales. Fleury had only one goaltending coach with the Penguins, Gilles Meloche, until the summer when Bales and Fleury met for the first time. Bales thought that Fleury had lost all his confidence after the Penguins pulled him in the playoffs for Tomas Vokoun but that was not the case. "I knew he was very talented," Bales said. "The only thing that has surprised me a little bit is just how physically talented he is. I didn't realize how gifted he is. With Marc, he can pick up new things and immediately make the adjustment into his game." Fleury has been great this season with a 13-7-0 record, a 1.95 GAA and a .923 save percentage. He gets the start on Monday against the Bruins in Boston.
