Fleury follows his best game with one of his worst.
Defensive breakdowns haven't helped, but those last two goals are all on Marc-Andre.
He CANNOT let that third goal in.
The old adage holds- experience and discipline wins out over youth and skill almost every time.
Penguins need to learn to play as a team the way Detroit does. Notice how they ALWAYS have a controlled, organized breakout from their zone, while the Pens are frantic and disorganized.
Hopefully, the Penguins learned a lot this series...and if they can keep most of the team together, they can come back and win some Cups in the future.
But this year is Detroit's year.

Pens' fans being very classy and respectful to Detroit during their celebration.
Hurts like hell- but nice to see the folks of the 'burgh acting stand-up.
I hope every penguin is letting this sink in- they need to use this to motivate themselves for next year.
Now they know what it takes.
