Athletistic/Hockey. Pittsburgh forward Evgeni Malkin shared his thoughts on his NHL accomplishments. In the match against Calgary (5:2) he scored a goal, tying Alexander Mogilny in the number of goals on the list of Russian NHL top scorers – both have 473 goals. The leader of the ranking is Alexander Ovechkin, who scored 822 goals.

“I would like to hope that tomorrow the season will end and I will win the Hart Trophy. I’m not thinking about it too much. Maybe I’ll try to catch Ovechkin, it won’t be easy, I’ll try . I hope that when I finish my career and I look back, I can say that I did everything in my power. Now I don’t think about points or anything else. I just try to give my best,” the club’s press service quotes Malkin as saying.

Malkin started the season with six points (2 goals, 4 assists) in three games, his best start in the NHL since 2018.

  • For the first time in history, the Washington Capitals failed to score in the opening game of the NHL season.
