From the complex and old-school mind of a goalie coach: Dave Prior felt the guy with three Stanley Cup rings, the former No. 1 overall draft pick, the one who arrived to Las Vegas having played 691 NHL games and compiled 375 wins, was underachieving at this stage of his career.
Prior saw beyond the gaudy numbers and impressive resume, focusing instead on attributes he was convinced could draw more from a player most already viewed as Hall of Fame worthy.
He was sure there was another level of greatness behind the mask, that Marc-Andre Fleury had more to him in net even after those 12 memorable seasons in Pittsburgh.
