Penguins center Evgeni Malkin will be sidelined multiple weeks with an injury suffered in the second period Saturday night against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
[hide] Citing Malkin as having a “longer term” injury, the good news with the injury is that it’s not season threatening, head coach Mike Sullivan said moments ago. In addition to Malkin, Sullivan also confirmed third line center Nick Bjugstad as having a “longer term” injury, but noted Malkin will be on the shelf a bit longer than Bjugstad.

Hey Sam, just so you dont miss this Malkins totals last year were 12 ES goal and 34 ES assists; he had 21 points on the PP for a 29.2% production average with the extra man. Also your attempt to somehow remove more points because of the minus 25 is absurd especially given how many SHGs the team coughed up last year lol. How are you gonna magically erase points to fit a narrative especially considering that his PP points to contribute to a + but the SHGA creates a – you fucken idiot. Now I get why you don’t… Read more »
yes and your russian takes dumb penalties that cost the team goals
you are a phony Fraud just like Trudeau
I thought Murray looked great all the way up to the national anthem.
Sam probably turned his TV off tonight. Sad.
No malkin, rust, bjukstad, and now Hornqvist..and Simon getting 18 minutes per night. The pens aren’t winning a game until December and they aren’t scoring more than 1 per game.
The highlight was the analytics king Simon shooting the puck 6 feet over the net standing all alone 8 feet in front of the goal with the net empty after a beautiful feed from Sid. Its no coincidence Sid doesn’t win Art Ross trophies. Sullivan sucks.
Letang takes out malkin, and tonight he takes out Hornqvist. Way to go.
Now if only he can take out himself.
Neal is one goal away from matching the 7 goals he scored all last season.
Magic number for fraud Murray?
5, same as Fleury.
yes box score but the way fleury let them in was not the same way Fraud murray let them in
you are as dumb as ZEroTool
Yes that makes sense… MAFs goals against were all miracles while Murray was just swiss cheese… fuckk you are so fucken stupid. Murray didnt have a great night but other than the 1st goal how are you putting it all on Murray lol 1. 100% poorly played by Murray 2. 2 on 1 Snipe by a very good goal scorer from a few feet out… 3. Screen by about 2/3 guys… probably could have had it still but it was a very tough shot to pick up because of traffic 4. Letang holds up at the fucken blueline for some… Read more »
Looking good Tanger.
How can any of you defend MM any more he is horrible at best.
Lol
Letang hurts another Penguin forward….
What is this “wealth of defensemen” they speak of? Lol
“Funny how sam was pointing out this russian was a fraud” This is how fucken stupid you are sam 1. In the last 14 years Malkin sits behind ONLY Crosby and Ovechkin in production, he played 152 games less than OV but only has 103 points less… he is more prolific than OV FFS. 2. Now comes the games comment… over that time he has played ONLY 10 less games than Crosby 3. Now for the fucken idiocy of the Toews comments… in 20 more games ONLY Toews has 755 points (17th in the league nearly 100 points behind Kessel… Read more »
For Fun – PP Specialist? Crosby has only 20 less PP goals… Stamkos, played 100 less games has more lol. Toews has half LMMFAO
Sam(e), care to retort?
He never responds to these posts “As StAn YoU sHoUlD aLrEdY kNoW” lol
Don’t leave out hockey11. The team is best with a part time center with a career high of 35 points as their 2c
Well well well look at this certified Moron with his Box Score Stats Did i ever said malkin Sucks nooooooooooooooooo is he lazy YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS even when he gets injured comes back he is right back on top lines and plays first unit of Powerplay which automatically you will get points and since he last contract extension what has he done special ? ? ? Let me graduate you from being a dumb *** Box Score expert to Advanced Box Score Expert Something that average IQ Fans like you Stan and NPL cant understand Lets take a Exemple last year since… Read more »
It has to be so embarrassing working for CNN these days.
Good lord for malkin that means 6 months…
Anyone else see anything that notes Malkin may only be out about a month?
I can’t find anything but it was on a hockey page with non-pen fans albeit poolies discussing it
Nvm… Dreger tweet “at least a month”
it’s amazing how the pens PR is acting like losing malkin is a horrible thing and it makes them a worse team. it’s amazing how they will prop up a guy who is impossible to trade because he is a paycheck stealing bum. the pens are so much better off with him out of the lineup. it’s a breath of fresh air. anytime you can get a guy out of the lineup who doesn’t give a crap, it’s a good thing. not to mention, they’ll cough up a lot less short handed opportunites now.
You’re giving Sam a run for his money. Not sure how many generations of inbreeding it took for you two to exist, but it’s entertaining!
Delays the inevitable Bjugstad trade
Nobody wants that dude.
ZeroTool must be glued in front of his TV watching his boy toy humiliated tonight
How stupid is Justin hes keep on calling Mr Singh Mr sheer on multiple occasions
Seriously… who gives a fucck!
He posts stuff like this thinking anyone cares. Trolling an American message board with Canadian politics lol
Oh I forgot American circus show is much better
No, but I don’t go on a hockey board and troll about politics.
What hockey board the fact that you have hard time to accept Malkin is a fraud and been coning the team for many years
That’s the most poorly written post in the history of the internet. Not only that, it makes zero sense on any level. How does one cone a team? “What hockey board” – maybe the one you’re posting on, dumba$$. The more you post, the more unbelievable it is that you are even capable of posting a message on the internet. I feel like you have every mental disease known to man.
Anyone want to remind this fucken retard how many times he’s fucked up players names?
How many finals games does Trudeau think Price has played? So I can get an idea of how stupid is stupid here…
Did he? Or was it more than one person making the error… are you lying because others are not watching?
How did you feel seeing Bernier soaked lol. No one seemed to really win this thing but Bernier definitely lost hahahaha. Even Scheer schooled him hey… fuck you’re almost as pathetic as he is
Lol, the more I catch I gotta tip the hat to Singh! Bernier still sucked… he was the Kris Letang of the debate
Watching the 9ers destroy Cleveland… I don’t fucken care enough to watch it live. I can pick up what I have to later. I’m already very aware of what’s going on… you are not so enjoy but like everyone else has said… shut the fuckk up already.
You can’t talk hockey and you can’t talk politics… stick to hockey as that’s what the page is for.
PS… Malkin being hurt isn’t just a valid excuse for the Pens having a rough go if they do it’s also a tragedy because Letang is still around to bury the defensive strategy
There are at least 3 people on this board that are happy that Malkin is hurt. That’s unreal, especially considering there are only like 8 members. Apparently thinking this was a pro- Penguins board was a misconception
Malkin literally picks the puck up inside the CLB redline… Sam thinks he’s being a puck hog… wow
“Sam(e) thinks”…. there is the problem with your statement.
Apparently Fraud Murray is due for his annual Vacation as well
but since his partner in crime is out on his vacation
Murray vacation got postponed
No one is talking about malkin having his head down stick handling! geez letang was standing there and did pull his leg back! Geno is in control he has the puck…obviously out of control…this is a first ballet HOF stick handling with his head down..his fault
letang if he moves the wrong way this could have been worse….granted Letang was standing still but malkin had his head down..there is the problem stop staring at the puck..
look at the bleeping video…
Looked at the bleeping video Letang is flat footed like a statue. Maybe he was paying homage to Matta.
Ok two important things here. 1. Letang GTF out the way hockey player are working out there. 2. Bjugstad is Br@SID4800$$ard part II. A bad sequel to dynasty killing trade.
i agree with you Bjugstad maybe a bust..Minnesota needs another center?
if Rust malkin and Bjugstad were healthy we could trade Nick….
Funny how sam was pointing out this russian was a fraud and only matter time average fan will start seeing and slowly its happening
its like liberals voting for trudeau and took them time to realize he is a fraud
Both cases can be linked with ZeroTool
“This russian”… “our russian”… “your russian”…. Sam(e)
i don’t like seeing anyone get hurt but i will certainly like watching the pens more with malkin out of the lineup. malkin and letang are unaccountable paycheck stealing frauds. with even one of those guys out of the lineup it will be 50% more refreshing.
Well so much for malkin’s bounce back season he is already out 20 games to start..
Letang is somewhat to blame (but he didn’t move he was sttill) BUT who’s in control it is the person with the puck that”s malkin (mr.. world class) stickhandling with his head down geez…
if he didnt t hog the puck that wouldnt have happened
now he’s a puck hog for trying to attack the O-zone to gain entry? He’s a first ballot HoF you fucken idiot… I’m sure he understands hisnplay at that area of the rink was to carry it in
Sam thinks the best play here is to pass the puck to Letang whose fucken standing fucken still getting in the way as opposed to hit the zone with speed… idiot
did i say pass it to letang wow man you and your fake stories
no wonder Trudeau is your idol
Then who was he to pass to? He was 10 feet from the blue line you fucken dumb shit…
Zero..agree with you that’s his role to gain entry..to stick handle and create and he is a first ballot hall of famer! But look at the video he clearly has his head down…that’s a no no glad scott stevens wasn’t around it would be paul kariya part 2…LOL malkin would be out until 2022.
Look, Letang fucks up for this team again… They should have legit dropped him in 2018 just after they proved they could win a cup without him.
the pens will never admit this, but he is impossible to move. who wants that train wreck?
once the russian retires you will hear how many times penguins or him were close to do a trade
only droolers on this website cant see that
We are talking about Letang, not Geno.
Thanks Letang!
Thanks For the Update D
at least its official our Power play specialist took his annual vacation a bit early this year
now the average bandwagon fan can blame malkins injury when they miss this year playoffs instead of admitting this team suckss
Fraud Murray Injured yet ?
