If we are allowed to make assumptions, it is somewhat safe to assume that Marc-Andre Fleury may indeed have the mumps, seeing that he was undergoing testing after not feeling well.
At the very least, it is good that the Penguins are being vigilant both in keeping Fleury (and other sick players) away from the team, even if they do not have the mumps, as well as having a contingency plan should Fleury be diagnosed.
Greiss time.
