WASHINGTON — The final decision is out of Marc-Andre Fleury’s control. But his choice is clear.
With the Golden Knights set to play back-to-back games against Washington and Pittsburgh, Fleury’s preference isn’t to start against his former club. He’ll leave that to backup goaltender Malcolm Subban.
Fleury wants another crack at the Stanley Cup champions.
“Both teams mean a lot to me,” Fleury said Tuesday. “Obviously playing in Pittsburgh for so long, it would have been nice to be there. But this is a team that beat us in the finals, and I just want to get back on the ice against them.
