Evgeni Malkin... consensus 4th best player on the 14-15 Penguin. And I don't disagree.

What a miserable season.

He's just been frustrating to follow the last few years. I admit a lot of it isn't his fault. He's probably my favorite player on the team, to be honest. But I personally think the days of him being the third/second best player in the league are behind him. I hope to be wrong.

I didn't like the idea of him traipsing off to a tournament while he was still pretty banged up and I still don't. Seems foolish and irresponsible. He isn't in his early 20s, anymore. You don't bounce back as easily. But whatever... in the past. He needs to have a big, healthy year.

Yeah to be honest I share the same concerns. I don't think he'll ever play a full season again. And then being punked by courtier in 2012. Best thing to do now imo is protect him in the season and hope he goes beast mode in the playoffs. No more nagging injuries. He complains about something in November or January you sit him till he's 100%.
