Evgeni Malkin: A 1,000-point superstar hiding in plain sight Globe_Sports
Pittsburgh Penguins' Evgeni Malkin celebrates his 1,000th career NHL point during a game against the Washington Capitals on March 12, 2019.The cameras crowd around Sidney Crosby’s stall, parting only to let the Pittsburgh Penguins captain slip through and tug on a baseball cap before the lights flip on, the microphones close in and the questions come.
Even if Malkin’s affable public reticence plays in stark contrast to the way he goes about doing his job, where the 2012 Hart Trophy winner, four-time All-Star and two-time scoring champion is a study in contrasts. Hulking yet nimble. Intimidating yet imaginative.
“I think of outside of Pittsburgh, I don’t think he gets the credit he deserves for the body of work that he’s put together in his decade-plus years as a Pittsburgh Penguin,” Pittsburgh coach Mike Sullivan said. “When you look at what he’s accomplished, it’s remarkable.” “Sid’s the hardest-working guy I’ve ever played with and I think he has to do that to be at the level he’s at,” Orpik said. “You can see Geno take a month off and come back and most guys are usually pretty rusty, he’s pretty much right at that level all the time.”Malkin’s milestone moment came during an uncharacteristically uneven season.
