Depends which malkin. The moody, slow guy. The injured guy.
The guy that gives a sh*t about doing productive things.

The last one is top 10

McDavid
MacKinnon
Crosby
Matthews
Barkov
Malkin
Eichel
Point
Bergeron
Scheifele

Seems pretty easy that he's top 10 still...
Eichel and point probably slide up

Draisaitl definitely

Zibanejad probably

Aho maybe

I would probably rather have Zibanejad than Malkin, even if they were the same age :O

Edit: Just to clarify:
Malkin at 28 years >> Zibanejad.
But I meant if both played as they do now and I only have them for one year. Otherwise, I always pick the younger of two similar players ...

Zbad - who has one year as anything near a point per game player, and that's because he was playing with an MVP candidate vs Malkin who has had one season below a point per game rate because he is ordinarily an MVP candidate...

Maybe that switch will flip this year, but this feels like a numbers grab on Zbad (somehow)...and he's grown as a player big time, I get that. But I'm not putting him as a top 10 center in the league...

This is about now and going forward, not a ranking of the past decade's accomplishments

Yes, I know. At some point or another, you need to show consistent betterness in order to pass someone in a ranking though...other than being buoyed by Bread for a year, Zbad hasn't made the jump to elite territory...

That's why Barkov got $80 mil and Zbad got $55 or whatever it was...it's because one is way better than the other...

Well yeah Barkov might be a top 5 forward in my book

I'll be interested to see what he learned and came back with after his first taste of NHL action...I'm not sure there's a huge upside player here, I'd be content if he became Thomas Hickey to be honest...but let's see where it goes...whatever it takes to keep Riikola out of the lineup, I guess haha

I couldn't find it on the Pens' website: what's the student rush policy? Is it just for college students, or does it apply to anybody with a .edu email? If I signed my kids' up under their email, could I do a BOGO and take them to the game?

Last time I used it you had to present a student ID to pick up the tickets at the student rush window. No idea if that’s still a thing.

Source of the post Woof. Attendance projections must be looking shitty.
No vax or mask requirement. I wonder why it's looking shitty.
