Marc-Andre Fleury has one season left in the tank as the goalie of the Minnesota Wild, after which he'll retire, and his final two masks have been revealed.

Marc-Andre Fleury has the honor of being able to wear two beautiful masks in the final season of his NHL career, which will be with the Minnesota Wild.

The first mask that designer Stephane Griff created for Marc-Andre Fleury is quite simple when compared to the other mask, but this one is still very beautiful. It has a white base with the letter "M" painted in green on each side and is outlined in yellow. The cage of the mask is yellow as well, which is very unique, and all of these colors are to represent and honor the former Minnesota hockey team which were the Minnesota North Stars, who later moved to Dallas and became the Stars.

The second mask has an animal head, which seems to be a bear, who has his mouth open wide and it appears that he is showing his teeth. The logos of the three other major sports teams in the state of Minnesota appear on each side of the mask: the NFL's Minnesota Vikings, the MLB's Minnesota Twins and the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves. The remainder of the mask contains trees and birds, which represent the large forest and numerous wildlife that can be seen in rural Minnesota. The mask obviously contains flowers, which represents Marc-Andre Fleury's nickname, as he is referred to as the "Flower" by many.
