Here... found it. If mods see fit to delete, I get it:

Malkin declined to elaborate on how his on-ice relationship with Kessel fell apart. But it’s clear he grew tired of feeling caught between the ongoing Sullivan-Kessel rift, according to multiple team and league sources. Those sources also say Malkin had come to believe Kessel was content with two titles and mostly interested in his statistics. Malkin was worried he’d be seen the same way if Kessel remained his winger.

Multiple team sources say Malkin requested a trade if Kessel was to return.

Malkin denies that, but it doesn’t mean he wanted to play another game, let alone another season, with Kessel as his linemate.

So yeah. Sounds like clickbait. Ha... guess it works.

But regardless, Kessel's leading the golf tournament in Arizona by an astounding five shots. Which I think those of us who aren't blinded by points expected to happen.

Oh I never had any problems moving on from Kessel. It was time. Only some concern that they were going to be missing too much high end talent which so far is an unfounded fear.

Eh, he's right with Kessel. 95%+ of this board is happy he's gone.

Whether or not Malkin said it directly to Rob freaking Rossi...that's certainly debatable. Whether Malkin is better off with Bryan Rust as his RW is not.
except whether or not Malkin said those words is the topic. The only topic I'm replying to. It's like saying "Bob murdered Jessica" and then someone finding out that Dave murdered Jessica, and then someone saying, "wow, that Bob, did us all a favor by murdering Jessica" and then someone saying, "But Bob didn't murder Jessica" and someone chiming in, "maybe Bob didn't pull the actual trigger, but we're all better off with her dead."

I would be willing to bet Kirk's bad testicle that Evgeni Malkin said to nooooooooo one, Rob Rossi, Jimmy Cracked Rutherford, or anyone else, "Trade Kessel or trade me."

I'd be a little concerned for anyone named Jessica who knows you in real life right about now...
