Athlete Profile

  • Malkin made his Olympic debut at Turin in 2006, totaling two goals and four assists as Russia settled for a fourth-place finish. He was named to the all-tournament team at the 2007 World Championship after tying for the scoring lead at the 2006 event with three goals and six assists in seven games. That came after he averaged better than a point per game in the Russian Super League while leading hometown team Metallurg Magnitogorsk to the regular season title at just 19. In the NHL, Malkin has already established himself as a top offensive threat for the defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins. As a rookie in 2006-07, Malkin scored in each of his first six games and finished with 33 goals and 52 assists to win the Calder Trophy. He was even better in his second year. With Sidney Crosby missing 29 games due to injury, Malkin led the Penguins with 47 goals and 106 points. Last season, he had 78 assists and 113 points to lead the league in both categories, but excelled in the playoffs. Malkin set league highs with 22 assists and 36 points to win the Conn Smythe Trophy as Pittsburgh hoisted its first Cup in 16 years.
