Evgeni Malkin Returns with Three-Point Effort
Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin made a huge impact in his return from suspension on Monday, totaling two goals and an assist in a 7-2 road win over the league-leading Colorado Avalanche. Malkin potted two even-strength goals inside the opening 13 minutes and added a power-play assist late in the second period. His second goal of the night went down as the game-winning tally. Malkin had as many as three points in a single game for the third time this season, boosting his total to 50 points (15 goals, 35 assists) in 47 games. For the first time since 2022-23, Malkin is averaging at least one point per game, proving he still has plenty of juice left at 39.
