Insider Elliot Friedman reported that “Pittsburgh” made no progress in negotiations with the Russian striker Yevgeny Malkin on the new contract.
Previously, media reported that Pittsburgh owners wanted to keep Malkin and defenseman Chris Letang on the team.
– They have already agreed on the duration of the new agreement, but the main problem is money. The contract is for three years, but I know they still can’t agree on the salary, Friedman said.
Malkin was selected second overall in the 2004 NHL Draft by Pittsburgh. The striker has been defending the colors of the team since 2006, in the regular season he played a total of 981 games, scoring 1146 points (444 + 702). As part of the Penguins, Malkin became a three-time Stanley Cup winner (2009, 2016, 2017).
