“Is Malkin entering the free agent market? Yes, from tomorrow Evgeny will become a free agent,” Ushakov said.
Malkin has been in talks with Pittsburgh since the end of last season, but the sides have not reached an agreement. Starting July 1, Malkin is a free agent, but until July 13, the Penguins could make a qualifying offer to the player.
Recall that Malkin has been playing for Pittsburgh since 2006. The Russian forward won the Stanley Cup three times.
