DENVER — Marc-Andre Fleury just wanted to catch up on his favorite soap opera.
The Golden Knights goaltender, who rejoined the team Friday after he suffered an undisclosed injury Tuesday against Vancouver, joked that his absence had more to do with daytime TV than his health.
“It was good. ‘Days of Our Lives’ was on all day,” Fleury said. “It was a good marathon. I just sat on the couch and got to enjoy it.”
Fleury left Tuesday’s game after the first period and did not return. He appeared to take a shot from Vancouver’s Brandon Sutter up high midway through the period.
