Charles LeClaire / USA Today Sports

The Pittsburgh Penguins and their fans welcomed Marc-Andre Fleury back with open arms.

During the first period of Vegas' lone visit to Pittsburgh this season (barring a Stanley Cup Final matchup), the Golden Knights goaltender was honored with a fitting video tribute.

That was followed by a lengthy and loud ovation from the Penguins faithful.

Fleury spent 13 years in Pittsburgh after being selected first overall by the Penguins in 2003, winning 375 regular-season games and three Stanley Cups.
