• Evgeni Malkin is back at second-line center, looks like he returns tomorrow. Would explain Emil Bemstrom getting sent back down.
Biggest indication Evgeni Malkin is feeling normal: His team just lost a drill and had to do pushups and he's arguing and yelling about a call somehow. He's back.
They’re playing seven-on-seven in one end. Slow-paced. But they’re chirping each other and attempting to call penalties. Erik Karlsson just now: “Geno! High stick! F— you! High stick!” Then Malkin’s side scores and he yells “High stick!” as he’s celebrating.
The entire team has been in an argument on that last drill for about 10 minutes in the locker room. Kris Letang at the center of it. It’s been going on for so long because guys keep coming off the ice and joining.
I don’t even know what that was fully about but it devolved into talk of highway laws and who is at fault in car accidents and yelling about car insurance.
