“We saw today that they gave me additional motivation, additional emotions. Flying here is not that easy as the journey takes around 20 hours. I hope they stay all year next year. They were tired and excited today before the game. I know they watch all the games at home, wake up at three in the morning and watch, they know everything,” Malkin said in the locker room after the game.
