In the Penguins' 5-1 loss to the Rangers in Game 5 Friday night, Pittsburgh goalie Marc-Andre Fleury ''showed his first real kinks of the series,'' writes Pittsburgh Tribune-Review writer Dejan Kovacevic. He adds: ''Too many big rebounds and far too much air under the Ryan McDonagh floater for the fourth New York goal.'' Fleury was coming off his best stretch of the post-season, having shut out the Rangers twice. The Pens lead the best-of-seven series 3-2. Fleury is 7-4 in the post-season, with a .918 save percentage and a 2.37 GAA.

Marc-Andre Fleury allowed four goals on 34 shots as the New York Rangers severely outplayed the Penguins on home ice en route to a 5-1 victory in Friday night's Game 5. Fleury was coming off his best stretch of the playoffs where he shut out the Blueshirts twice and grabbed another win in Game 4. Two power play goals allowed and a relentless Rangers forecheck buried the Penguins in this one though, who are still up 3-2 in the series.

Marc-Andre Fleury could not muster another shutout, but managed to bring home the all-important victory in Game 4 over the Rangers on Wednesday night. Fleury allowed two goals on 15 shots in the Pens' 4-2 win on the road, bringing them within one win of eliminating New York. Fleury's impressive shutout streak was snapped after 145:30 of flawless hockey on Wednesday, but has silenced his critics for now with three straight victories.

To the surprise of no one, Marc-Andre Fleury has been named the Penguins' starter for Game 4 on Wednesday. It will be his fourth start in six days, but he'll be playing against a Rangers team that's even more tired. Fleury shutout the Rangers in Games 2 and 3, which puts the pressure on New York to win tonight or come within one game of elimination.

Craig Adams, who won the Stanley Cup with Marc-Andre Fleury in 2009, has never seen the Penguins goaltender play this good. Fleury turned aside 35 straight shots against the New York Rangers on Monday to post his second straight shutout. He now has a 2.22 GAA and .925 save percentage in the playoffs. Fleury has had some rough patches in the playoffs, but he's also had some great performances and that gives the Penguins hope that this might be the year they reclaim the Cup.

Marc-Andre Fleury posted his second straight shutout of the New York Rangers Monday, as Pittsburgh skated to a 2-0 victory in Game 3 of their second round playoff series. Fleury blocked all 35 New York shots in the victory to record his second straight clean sheet of the Blueshirts. He may have struggled throughout Pittsburgh's first round series with Columbus, but Mr. Fleury has found his game in Round 2.

Marc-Andre Fleury recorded his seventh career playoff shutout as he and the Penguins blanked the Rangers 3-0 in Game 2 on Sunday night. Fleury made 22 saves, with his first shutout of this postseason. It was a complete game for the Penguins in all areas, so Fleury really wasn't called upon to make many big saves. A lot of the Rangers' shots came from the outside, with limited traffic in front. Fleury has a 2.49 goals-against average and .914 save percentage in the playoffs. The series is tied 1-1, with Game 3 on Monday night.

For those of you wondering, Marc-Andre Fleury will start in goal against the Rangers in Game 2 Sunday night. He had a rough start in Game 1 allowing two goals in the first period but settled down thereafter. Fleury needs to have a decent game to avoid the Rangers going up 2-0 in this second-round series.

Marc-Andre Fleury allowed three goals on 27 shots in a 3-2 overtime loss to New York in Game 1 on Friday night. Fleury allowed two first period goals, but settled down in the final 40 minutes as the Penguins tied it up to force overtime. In the first minute of the extra frame, Benoit Pouliot fed a wide open Derick Brassard in the slot and Fleury was beaten on a bullet top shelf. Fleury has allowed three or more goals in all but one playoff game so far.

Marc-Andre Fleury will play between the pipes on Friday. Not that there was any doubt. Tomas Vokoun wasn't able to play in the NHL during the regular season and Jeff Zatkoff doesn't have much experience, so the Penguins don't really have a safety net should Fleury falter.
