Evgeni Malkin Suffers Apparent Injury in Sunday's Win

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (undisclosed) appeared to have gotten hurt during Sunday's 3-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks. He was seen grabbing his shoulder on the bench as the Penguins celebrated their win at the end of the game. Malkin scored Pittsburgh's first goal on Sunday and has looked fantastic since returning from an upper-body injury. Across his last 10 appearances, Malkin has produced five goals and six assists. He is averaging over a point per game for the season, with 13 goals and 27 assists in 40 outings. We should know more about what happened to Malkin before Thursday's matchup against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Evgeni Malkin Collects Two Points in Win Over Flames

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin was in top form on Wednesday night against the Calgary Flames, recording a goal and an assist in a 4-1 road victory. Malkin opened the scoring in the first period and helped Egor Chinakhov tally the game-winning goal in the second. Since returning from an upper-body injury earlier this month, Malkin has contributed three goals and five assists in eight appearances. He has been a point-per-game player all season, bagging 11 goals and 26 assists in 34 outings. Malkin's hot form also boosts the fantasy value of his linemates. Tommy Novak is currently skating with Malkin and Chinakhov.

Evgeni Malkin Set to Return Thursday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve and is set to return from a 15-game absence on Thursday against the New Jersey Devils. Malkin's return will be an additional boost to an improving Penguins team that has reignited its playoff hopes with a five-game winning streak. He is expected to make his comeback as the left winger on the second line, having skated there during Wednesday's practice. Ben Kindel and Yegor Chinakhov will join Malkin on the line. Malkin has been a point-per-game player in 2025-26, notching eight goals and 21 assists in 26 appearances.

Evgeni Malkin Lands on Injured Reserve

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) was placed on Injured Reserve ahead of Tuesday's tilt against the Anaheim Ducks. He departed the lineup on Sunday against the Dallas Stars and will miss at least a couple more games after Tuesday night. Pittsburgh also placed Blake Lizotte (upper body) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. The Penguins are once again struggling with injuries in the attacking department, giving Thomas Novak a top-line role. Novak has been a regular on the score sheet recently and could cause plenty of trouble for the opposition as Sidney Crosby's partner in crime.

Evgeni Malkin Won't Play on Sunday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) will exit the lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Dallas Stars. He is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury. Malkin has turned back the clock this season, posting 29 points (eight goals, 21 assists) in 26 games. His absence will undoubtedly be a blow for the Penguins. However, Noel Acciari (upper body) and Justin Brazeau (upper body) are ready to rejoin the Penguins' frontline on Sunday night, partially offsetting the loss of Malkin. Brazeau had a hot start to the season before missing 14 games with an upper-body injury. He has recorded six goals and 12 points in 12 appearances.

Evgeni Malkin Continues Prolific Start

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin posted a power-play goal in Thursday's 4-2 road win over the Los Angeles Kings. While this was Malkin's first goal of the season, he's had six assists already and leads the Penguins with seven points through five games. The 39-year-old hopes to bounce back this season after struggling for consistency last term. The early signs are promising, but it's important to note that Malkin had an even better start last year, with 11 points in the first five games, before his performance declined. Next up, the Russian veteran will face the San Jose Sharks, who are currently allowing a league-high average of 5.33 goals per game. This matchup offers Malkin a fantastic chance to further boost his scoring tally over the weekend.

Evgeni Malkin Not Thinking About Retirement

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin hinted that he might have another season left in him after his 20th NHL campaign in 2025-26. "I'm still hungry. I'm glad to be here this year," Malkin told reporters on Friday. "[But] it depends how the season is going [whether I stay in Pittsburgh]. If we play great, I play great, I feel confidence, and I show my game, why not one more? The preseason is huge for the team, and for myself. We have [a] new coach, a couple new teammates. It's exciting to see what's going on this year." Malkin will begin the final season of a four-year, $24.4 million contract. He had a below-par year last season with a 50-point effort across 68 games.

Evgeni Malkin Could Return To Action Saturday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) could be back in action on Saturday against the Dallas Stars. The veteran star returned to practice on Friday and will be considered a game-time decision for Saturday's contest. Malkin has sat out four games while recovering from an upper-body injury. If Malkin receives clearance on Saturday, he will reclaim his position as the second-line center and probably return to the top power-play unit. In 62 appearances throughout the season, Malkin has registered 15 goals and 46 points. He has scored in each of his last two appearances.

Evgeni Malkin Joins Penguins For Road Trip

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) will accompany the team on its upcoming three-game road trip. This suggests that Malkin may be ready to return to the lineup soon. He has missed three games due to an upper-body injury. The Penguins begin the road trip with a matchup against the St. Louis Blues on Thursday and will also face the Dallas Stars and Chicago Blackhawks later in the week. Kevin Hayes and Rickard Rakell have seen time as the second-line center during Malkin's absence. Prior to his injury, Malkin scored in back-to-back games. However, the season overall has not gone well for him, as the seven-time All-Star has tallied 46 points (15 goals, 31 assists) in 62 games.

Evgeni Malkin Out Against Senators

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) will remain sidelined for Sunday's matchup against the Ottawa Senators. He continues to recover from an upper-body injury, missing a third consecutive game. Kevin Hayes has stepped in as the second-line center in place of Malkin, but Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan has opted to switch things up for Sunday's game, with Rickard Rakell set to take over that role. Sidney Crosby and Bryan Rust will be joined on the first line by Rutger McGroarty, who will make his first appearance in the big league since October.

Evgeni Malkin Out On Thursday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) will miss a second consecutive game on Thursday against the Buffalo Sabres. Pittsburgh lost Malkin to an upper-body injury at the start of the week, with the veteran star labeled as day-to-day. Kevin Hayes is likely to continue filling in for Malkin as the second-line center. Malkin's next chance to return will be on Sunday against the Ottawa Senators. This has been a forgettable campaign for Malkin, who might struggle to get to 50 points. He has notched 15 goals and 46 points in 62 appearances.

Evgeni Malkin Considered Day-To-Day

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) wore a non-contact jersey in Wednesday's practice and is considered day-to-day. The veteran star missed Tuesday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning due to an upper-body injury. It seems that Malkin may miss additional time because of the injury, but he isn't expected to be sidelined for long. Kevin Hayes took over as the second-line center on Tuesday. He also filled in for Malkin on the top power-play unit but had no offensive stats as the Penguins took a heavy 6-1 loss. For the season, Hayes has totaled 20 points (10 goals, 10 assists) in 56 appearances.

Evgeni Malkin Powers Pittsburgh To Victory

Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin tallied four points during their overtime victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday evening. In the second period, Malkin tallied two helpers, the primary assist on Philip Tomasino's strike and the secondary assist on Erik Karlsson's goal. In the third period, Malkin found the back of the net on a snap shot to tie the game and force overtime. Then in overtime, Malkin scored his second goal of the evening to seal the victory. Since returning from a lower-body injury on February 22, Malkin has found the back of net three times and added four helpers. During this stretch, the 38-year-old has tallied six shots on goal and held a +2 rating. Even though Malkin has not been as consistent this season, he continues to see top six minutes in the Pittsburgh offense. He will look to stay hot on Saturday afternoon against the Boston Bruins.

Evgeni Malkin On Track To Return Saturday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (lower body) is ready to rejoin the lineup on Saturday against the Washington Capitals. He has been out for six games due to a lower-body injury but returned to practice recently. Malkin will likely jump on the second line. The Russian veteran has had a disappointing season, amassing 34 points (nine goals, 25 assists) in 47 outings. He has managed only one goal and two assists over his past nine outings. Pittsburgh is struggling, and it appears unlikely that Malkin will improve his scoring pace over the final couple of months of the season.

Evgeni Malkin Labeled As Week-To-Week

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (lower body) has been labeled as week-to-week. The veteran star left Saturday's contest against the Seattle Kraken with a lower-body injury and seems set for another stint on the sidelines. Earlier in January, Malkin sat out four games due to an upper-body injury. Gody Glass will take over the second-line center spot from Malkin in Monday's matchup against the San Jose Sharks, with Anthony Beauvillier moving up from the third line to skate on the right wing. Glass went scoreless as a center when Malkin missed time earlier this month.

Evgeni Malkin Sustains A Lower-Body Injury Saturday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (lower body) will not return to Saturday's contest against the Seattle Kraken. Malkin exited the action in the first period following a collision with Seattle forward Chandler Stephenson, and the team has announced that the Russian star will miss the rest of the game due to a lower-body injury. This is another setback for the Penguins in a season full of frustration. Fantasy managers should consider Malkin day-to-day for now. Pittsburgh's next game is set for Monday in San Jose. Cody Glass previously filled in as the second-line center earlier this month, while Kevin Hayes might also assume the role if Malkin is unable to play on Monday.

Evgeni Malkin On Track To Return Tuesday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) has been activated from Injured Reserve ahead of Tuesday's contest against Seattle. Jesse Puljujarvi was reassigned to the AHL in a corresponding move. Malkin is poised to return to the lineup following a four-game absence, taking up his usual spot on the second line. Cody Glass, who has filled in for Malkin on the line, will switch to the right wing. Malkin has posted 32 points (eight goals, 24 assists) in 41 games this season. 11 of the points came in the first five contests, so the Russian star has not been at his best in 2024-25.

Evgeni Malkin Placed On Injured Reserve

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (upper body) was placed on Injured Reserve Sunday. The team activated Philip Tomasino (lower body) from the Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Malkin will sit out a fourth straight contest as the Penguins host Tampa Bay on Sunday. Cody Glass has been skating as the second-line center with Malkin out of the lineup, though Tomasino's return gives the team an added option up front. Tomasino has been absent for three games. The 23-year-old has notched four goals and seven points in 16 games with the Penguins since moving from Nashville to Pittsburgh on Nov. 25.

Evgeni Malkin A Game-Time Call Thursday

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin (lower body) is a game-time call for Thursday's tilt against Edmonton. The Russian star missed his first game of the season on Tuesday versus Columbus but might be ready to jump back into the lineup on Thursday. Malkin practiced on Wednesday, although he did not participate in line rushes. Cody Glass is set to continue as the second-line center if Malkin can't play on Thursday. Glass did not make a significant impact in an expanded role on Tuesday, finishing a 4-3 shootout loss without any points and zero shots on goal. He has tallied nine points (one goal, eight assists) in 29 appearances across the season.

Evgeni Malkin Sidelined With Upper-Body Injury

According to the team, Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin (upper body) did not play in Tuesday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Malkin was a late scratch to the lineup after he was not seen during warmups. However, he did participate in the morning skate. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status before their next game on Thursday evening against the Edmonton Oilers. On Tuesday night, Cody Glass was promoted to the second line center role. This was the first game Malkin missed this season. Through 41 games, the 38-year-old has scored eight goals with 24 helpers. He has been more productive lately, tallying five points over his past six games.
