Golden Knights activate Fleury from IR
The Vegas Golden Knights have their No. 1 netminder back, as the team activated Marc-Andre Fleury off injured reserve Sunday.
Fleury's missed the last 25 games for the Knights since being placed on IR with a concussion Oct. 14.
Prior to the injury, the 33-year-old vet was feeling it. He went 3-1-0 along with a 2.48 goals-against average and .925 save percentage for an upstart Vegas club that's used five different goalies so far this season.
In a corresponding roster move, the Knights sent goaltender Maxime Lagace to their AHL affiliate in Chicago. Across 14 games for Vegas, Lagace performed admirably, registering a 6-6-1 record.
The team has yet to announce whether Fleury will man the blue paint when Vegas hosts the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night.
