Double Olympic ice hockey champion Vyacheslav Fetisov reacted to the situation with the striker’s contract extension “Pittsburgh” Evgenia Malkina .
– There is a system in which no one can exceed the salary cap. You need to understand that Pittsburgh does not merge Malkin, and the club only has an interchangeability system, where younger people occupy higher positions, veterans have to make a decision – to stay in the team under certain conditions or look for another club.
The system is designed in such a way that in clubs planning to win the Stanley Cup, veterans of this level are in demand. Malkin will have enough offers where he can go, Fetisov said as quoted by RBC-Sport.
Earlier, the Russian has already said that he would like to end his playing career as part of Pittsburgh, declaring his love for the city and the local fans.
Malkin was selected by Pittsburgh with the second overall pick in the 2004 draft. With the team, he won the Stanley Cup three times.
