Athletistic / Hockey. Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin was unhappy with his team’s performance in the recent NHL regular season game against the St. Louis Blues. The match ended with the victory of the “bluesmen” with a score of 4:2.
“The next opponents on our schedule will be great teams. We have to start playing better, smarter, stronger. Now it’s time to regroup. The game against St. Louis was bad. I’m disappointed.
A team game with the puck? “Three against two”, “two against one”, the whole match. Constantly… We shoot from the blue line, and the opponent blocks, and then we don’t give the puck back. We need to act smarter. It seems like we make the same mistakes over and over again. Right now we are playing too risky,” Malkin was quoted as saying by The Athletic.
Evgeni Malkin scored one of the Penguins’ goals in the game against St. Louis. This season, the 37-year-old Russian has scored 8 (4+4) points in five NHL games.
