The Penguins took part in team practice today, and Marc-Andre Fleury was in net, robbing Sidney Crosby and warning his teammates he's coming for their spot.

Penguins training camp will never forget today because it was the day when Marc-André Fleury made an impressive return to the Steel City.
The veteran netminder, getting back to the city of his rookie days, was the center of attention, even if he has no realistic shot at cracking the roster. But never say never, right?
The crowd packed the rink to watch him practice before he actually suits up for Saturday night's game, and Fleury did not disappoint.
"Flower" busted out his old yellow pads from the early days of his career, bringing nostalgia to the building. He wasn't there for sentiment alone either, as Fleury slid into drills and soon found himself facing his longtime teammate, Sidney Crosby.
In pure throwback fashion, Fleury made a dazzling pad stack save on the captain, although Crosby did score on the rebound. Roars from the crowd attested to how many good times those two have had over the years.

Marc-Andre Fleury Sarcastically Tells His Teammates He's Coming to Take Their Spot

Fleury even trolled his teammates and issued a hilarious warning to the younger netminders.
"They better try hard. I'm coming to take your spot."

But Fleury wasn't alone in making waves. His son also joined in on the fun, not by blocking pucks but by displaying his imagination with a few fun tricks of his own. It was a heartwarming scene that left players and everyone in attendance feeling good.
Around camp as a whole, there's an electric feel this year. Fleury won't play today against the Red Wings but will be dressing for tomorrow's game against Columbus, something that won't go unnoticed by the fans.
Simply put, Fleury's arrival injected this year's training camp with a spark that transcended hockey, providing another reason for Pittsburghers to imbue their beloved goaltender for one final time.
