I heard that. I still doubt it's the best move for Fleury to make the team. It's just to risky for a young goalie. But if anyone could handle it, it would probably be Fleury.

BTW, in case anyone cares, Sidney Crosby was named offensive player of the week in the QMJHL. After his first game (where he scored a hat trick to lead Rimouski back after training 3-0), he was shutout in his second game, scored 5 points in his third (2 G, 3 A - including the game winning goal 9 seconds into overtime), and then 1 assist in his fourth game.

EDIT: For comparisons, Mario Lemieux scored 96 points in 64 games in his first season in the Q (as a 16 year old - the same age as Crosby). However, since then the Q has less offensive.
