He hasn't been an elite player more than sporadically since years anymore.

Quinn for Sullivan, 1-for-1 trade of Irish Boston coachesThat entire team just looks like they've given up. I'm sure Geno (and Sid) could definitely light it up, with a coaching change.
Malkin has not scored 100 points in almost 10 years.Well I am taking the guy with 12 points in 20 games and the guy who just last year was at 100+ points Malkin.
Let's hold off on him joining this all star team.
Pace you are correct I shoyld have said pace.Malkin has not scored 100 points in almost 10 years.
His heart is in Pittsburgh but his mind is in Florida @Gurglesons

Malkin for Bob then given our trade history?
No I wouldn't be that cruel.
If Malkin did want to leave, what's his cost this offseason with one year left?
9.5 million.
Crosby (18 points in 20 games) and Malkin (12 points in 20 games) have both looked bad, but Malkin moreso.
Hard to get a read on it now. They're getting older, there was no preseason this year, playing tough defensive teams every night (6 games against the isles just in the last 2 weeks), and Sullivan seems to be lost.
Malkin had 74 points in 55 games last season so I don't think he just fell off a cliff in less than a year. Not going to write either of them off as elite players until we get back to a normal season. If they're still underperforming then maybe yea time has caught up to them.
He also commented early on how much different it is playing in empty arenas. It is hard for some guys to manufacture the adrenaline and energy from playing in front of 18k people.
Hextall won't fire Sullivan until next year I bet. He's way too careful to do it mid-season.He, Sid and the entire team in general remind me exactly of how they played before Johnston and Therrien were fired.
Listless. Directionless. Frustrated. Fire Sully, then see where Malkin's at. I still think he has the elite-ness within him.
