The Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender allowed four goals in his club's 4-3 overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday and admits he wasn't quite himself.

"It wasn't the best I've felt in a game, but still I've been practicing a lot," Fleury said, according to NHL.com's Dan Rosen. "I should be better, especially on that first one."

Fleury was making his first start since March 31 and just his second appearance between the pipes this postseason. It also marked the first time in 11 starts that Fleury had allowed four or more goals and just the third time he's allowed three or more.

Game 6 is Tuesday in Tampa Bay.
