Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports / USA TODAY Sports

Marc-Andre Fleury has taken a positive step toward being ready for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, practicing with the Pittsburgh Penguins on Monday.

Fleury has been out since March 31 with his second concussion of the season. The Penguins begin their first-round playoff series with the New York Rangers on Wednesday.

"One day at a time," he told reporters about his progress. "This was my first practice, so we'll see how it goes."

Fleury is coming off a fantastic regular season in which he posted a record of 35-17-6, with a .921 save percentage and two shutouts.
