Former Moscow hockey player “Spartacus” and St. Petersburg SKA Maxime Rybine said he was not surprised by the Russian striker’s brilliant play “Pittsburgh” Evgenia Malkina at the start of the new NHL season.
This season, 37-year-old Malkin played three matches and scored 6 (2+4) points.
— I can’t say that I am particularly surprised by such a bright start of Evgeniy in the NHL. He has long been one of the star players of the league, and it is very pleasing that he showed such a game just when questions began to arise about him in the United States. Of course, it would be very cool if he finally managed to reach 100 points in the regular season.
But let’s wait a few months before making long-term forecasts. Now the same excitement begins regarding Toronto’s Auston Matthews, who is already expected to have the best season of his career after his hat-tricks in just two matches, Rybin told RT.
