One of the smallest players of his generation, Fleury played a physical style that often led to altercations. As a junior, he was at the centre of the infamous Punch-up in Piestany, a brawl that resulted in the disqualification of both Canada and the Soviet Union from the 1987 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships. Once considered unlikely to play in the NHL due to his small size, Fleury scored over 1,000 points in his career and won the Stanley Cup in 1989 with the Flames. He twice represented Canada at the Winter Olympics, winning a gold medal in 2002. Throughout his career, he battled drug and alcohol addictions that ultimately forced him out of the NHL in 2003. He played one season in the British Elite Ice Hockey League in 2005–06, and made two attempts to win the Allan Cup. After an unsuccessful NHL comeback attempt with the Flames, he retired in 2009.
Check out some of the greatest moments from Theoren Fleury's NHL career, which spanned three decades and two separate stints with the Calgary Flames.

The Most Unbelievable Story in Hockey
Will Theo Fleury's insane life keep him out of the Hockey Hall of Fame?
At 5-5 and 150 pounds, Theo Fleury was hockey’s little giant, a high-octane whirling dervish who thrilled fans and antagonized opponents. The smallest player in hockey, Fleury succeeded by playing the game on the edge – and he lived his life that way, too.
Fleury was ignored by NHL scouts, but against all odds he built a hall of fame worthy career highlighted by over 1000 points, a Stanley Cup championship, An Olympic Gold Medal and 7 NHL all star games appearances.
But while he was dazzling fans on the ice – away from the rink, Fleury’s life was spinning out of control.
Why was this pint-sized superstar so self destructive … and so full of rage?
In later years he’d come to understand that the source of his anger...

Star player, Olympic gold medalist, and Stanley cup champion. These are some of the accomplishments that Fleury racked up in a unforgettable NHL career. He did this while also dealing with the weight of being sexually abused for much of his junior career which in turn led to bouts with drug and alcohol addiction. Today Theo has turned his life around for the better and that in itself is something to truly be proud of.

Will Theo Fleury's insane life keep him out of the Hockey Hall of Fame?
At 5-5 and 150 pounds, Theo Fleury was hockey’s little giant, a high-octane whirling dervish who thrilled fans and antagonized opponents. The smallest player in hockey, Fleury succeeded by playing the game on the edge – and he lived his life that way, too.
Fleury was ignored by NHL scouts, but against all odds he built a hall of fame worthy career highlighted by over 1000 points, a Stanley Cup championship, An Olympic Gold Medal and 7 NHL all star games appearances.
But while he was dazzling fans on the ice – away from the rink, Fleury’s life was spinning out of control.
Why was this pint-sized superstar so self destructive … and so full of rage?
In later years he’d come to understand that the source of his anger, guilt and shame was a painful secret he held inside. This was a secret so dark that hiding it ultimately cost Fleury his career, his family and almost his life.
This is the remarkable story of Theo Fleury – his unlikely rise to stardom, his descent into a personal hell and his search for freedom from the ghosts of the past.

One of the smallest players of his generation, Fleury played a physical style that often led to altercations. As a junior, he was at the centre of the infamous Punch-up in Piestany, a brawl that resulted in the disqualification of both Canada and the Soviet Union from the 1987 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships. Once considered unlikely to play in the NHL due to his small size, Fleury scored over 1,000 points in his career and won the Stanley Cup in 1989 with the Flames. He twice represented Canada at the Winter Olympics, winning a gold medal in 2002. Throughout his career, he battled drug and alcohol addictions that ultimately forced him out of the NHL in 2003. He played one season in the British Elite Ice Hockey League in 2005–06, and made two attempts to win the Allan Cup. After an unsuccessful NHL comeback attempt with the Flames, he retired in 2009.
