Athletistic / Hockey. Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin spoke about the details of signing his contract with the Penguins. In the summer of 2022, the Russian signed a 4-year deal totaling $24.4 million.

“Did I compromise the new contract? But they didn’t give me more! Do you think I didn’t want it myself? I asked for 8 million dollars, but they didn’t give me ‘They didn’t give. Maybe they thought I had a lot of injuries and was no longer at the same level. Of course, “You always want a little more money than what they give you at the END. But my agents fought until the end, I can say that with complete confidence. I still have a good contract. We’re going to work!” – Sport-Express quotes Malkin as saying.

Evgeni Malkin has played for Pittsburgh since the fall of 2006. He won three Stanley Cups with the Penguins. This season, the 37-year-old Russian played 10 matches and scored 13 (7+6) points thanks to the goal+pass system.
