Last night's Blackhawks-Canadiens matchup was a special one for Jonathan Toews and Marc-André Fleury.
The captain scored his first goal of the season and first in 21 months, while Marc-André Fleury picked up a shutout and his 500th career NHL win.
The Blackhawks have a tradition in the locker room after every win to hand out a wrestler's belt to the player of the game.
Marc-André Fleury had to decide who would be the lucky winner. He chose to give it to his captain. The captain looked flattered by the Quebecer's gesture, but he could not accept this honor, as he immediately gave the belt back to the goalie.
Quite a show of leadership from number 19. Nice gesture!
Marc-André Fleury will remember this incredible night for a long time.
