Evgeni Malkin Remains Out On Saturday
6 years agoPittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin (upper body) will not play in Saturday's contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Malkin missed Friday's game against the Ottawa Senators with the same injury. The talented Russian pivot has produced 14 goals and 41 assists through 50 games this season. He is expected to be back relatively soon. In his absence, newcomers Nick Bjugstad and Jared McCann will occupy the second and third lines, respectively. Bjugstad, in particular, will see a slight increase in fantasy value while he plays alongside Phil Kessel.
