Origin
and identity
Evgeni Malkin supplied Pittsburgh with a second exceptional centre and his own collection of championship-defining performances.
Selected immediately after Alex Ovechkin in the 2004 draft, Malkin built a celebrated NHL career in Pittsburgh. His rookie award was followed by a scoring title and a playoff MVP award during the Penguins' 2009 championship.
The 2011–12 season brought another scoring title alongside the Hart and Ted Lindsay awards. Two further Stanley Cups and world championships with Russia underline a career whose major accomplishments reach well beyond one partnership or one season.
