Over the past few days, Quebec goaltender Marc-André Fleury has completely mocked Gary Bettman and his rules by deciding to wear his mask in honor of the First Nations, despite the NHL's ban.
This story has generated a lot of buzz as the league had warned the veteran that he would be fined if he made such a move. However, the goalie quickly received support from fans on social media who, despite the NHL's rule, supported Marc-Andre Fleury.
Honestly, we want to congratulate him for standing up to the NHL commissioner and prioritizing his own values, especially since this action had no negative influence on the National League.
Although we are still waiting for a possible decision from the NHL, excellent news appeared today as the auction has now exceeded $15,000, three times the price initially asked for the mask.
Of course, all the profits from the sale will be donated to the Minnesota Wild Foundation and the American Indian Center. This is clearly concrete proof that thousands of hockey fans around the world agree with the gesture made by Marc-André Fleury.
