The world of hockey doesn’t have many unique personalities.
Whether that’s because of a juniors system that trains personality out of players or just an expectation around the game not to talk much — which only a few notable breaks — the game has a definitive lack of characters.
Luckily, one of the most unique and definable personalities in hockey is now in net for the Blackhawks, with Marc-Andre Fleury starting the season as the team’s undisputed No. 1 goalie. There’s a reason that the media seems to love Flower so much, especially in Pittsburgh and Las Vegas — the two cities where Fleury has played so far.
