Evgeni Malkin was a force in the offensive zone in the Penguins 5-4 overtime loss to the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday night. Malkin scored goals 20, 21 on the season and the key for Malkin was getting to the net with an authority, something we don’t see on a regular basis. Malkin had 7 shots on goal in the loss. Malkin’s two goal night was his first multi-goal game since January 5th, a span of 25 games. |
