Athletistic/Hockey. Former head coach of the Russian national team Vladimir Plyushchev spoke about the performance of Pittsburgh striker Evgeni Malkin.

The hockey player scored 6 (2+4) points in the first three games of the season.

“Evgeniy is a true master who is part of an elite group of players throughout the league. Malkin was ultimately able to overcome all of his health issues, which is directly reflected in his actions on the ice. He has always the desire to play.

I won’t guess if he can finally score 100 points in a season. But I am sure that he will play, first of all, for the team and not for his own records,” Pliushchev said in an interview with RT.
