Evgeni Malkin Sustains A Lower-Body Injury Saturday
1 day agoPittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (lower body) will not return to Saturday's contest against the Seattle Kraken. Malkin exited the action in the first period following a collision with Seattle forward Chandler Stephenson, and the team has announced that the Russian star will miss the rest of the game due to a lower-body injury. This is another setback for the Penguins in a season full of frustration. Fantasy managers should consider Malkin day-to-day for now. Pittsburgh's next game is set for Monday in San Jose. Cody Glass previously filled in as the second-line center earlier this month, while Kevin Hayes might also assume the role if Malkin is unable to play on Monday.
