Incredible story about how Fleury made it from Chicago to Minnesota
The Minnesota Wild were finally able to secure a deal today for the services of Marc-Andre Fleury. But to get Fleury to tonight's game General Manager, Bill Guerin, had to do to an amazing lengths to get Fleury to Minnesota on time.
So what did Guerin do?
Well he hoped on owner, Craig Leopold's plane and picked up Fleury himself.
#mnwild GM Bill Guerin flew to Chicago on Craig Leipold's plane with the owner to pick up Fleury personally. The Wild have a day off tomorrow, so Fleury will go back to Chicago after the game to essentially finish packing his life up
Not only did Fleury get picked up in style, but tomorrow he'll be able to return to Chicago with the plane to pack up the rest of his stuff.
Now if that's not service I don't know what is.
