Video: Fleury Robs Ovechkin

Penguins goalie Marc-Andre Fleury didn't have the best playoff series of his career against the Washington Capitals, but he managed to save his best moment for the biggest stage, robbing Capitals superstar Alex Ovechkin in the opening minutes of Pittsburgh's commanding 6-2 on Wednesday night.

Ovechkin worked his way behind the Pittsburgh defense and stormed in by himself, like he's done so many times in his career, and had an opportunity to blow the roof off the building with the all-important first goal.

Ovechkin would eventually score his eighth goal of the postseason in the second period, taking advantage of a turnover by Fleury behind the net. By that point the Penguins already had control of the game and it was simply too little, too late for Washington.
