“He decided to scout a pregame video package the Capitals regularly displayed on their video board. What could it hurt? The package was sure to feature footage of Ovechkin scoring goals, and Fleury thought there was at least a chance the video could serve as a cheat sheet for the final exam that was Game 7. Again, Ovechkin had either scored or set up 13 goals through six games. Fleury figured Ovechkin was going to get a few chances with everything on the line. Not that he was planning for Ovechkin to land a breakaway around three minutes into the game. However, when it happened … “Well, he did the same move on the breakaway that I saw on the Jumbotron before the game. He scored that way on the Jumbotron,” Fleury said. “So, when I saw him come down, I was maybe looking for that move. And he still fooled me pretty good. He has such a good shot, you have to respect it. But I didn’t commit all the way, because I knew — from what I’d seen on the Jumbotron — that he might go around me. He did. And I was able to get a piece of it. “But, yeah, I scouted him on the Jumbotron. That was my secret.””
