Multiple sources have confirmed to KDKA-TV that Penguins' assistant captain Evgeni Malkin's Sewickley Heights home was broken into on Saturday and his Stanley Cup championship rings are missing.

Malkin won the rings with the Penguins in 2009, 2016, and 2017.

The back door of Malkin's home was kicked in and at the time of the break-in, the alarm system and cameras happened to be down. His safe was kept open, as well.

The Penguins had a 4 p.m. game against the Ottawa Senators that same day and the 911 call came in a few hours later.

I like Caufield a lot and he's who I would have taken with our pick in 2019 ... but yeah. NHL GMs would not take a tiny scoring winger over young top-pairing D or Wolf who is fantastic.

Yeah. Caulfield is easily a top 5 player in the draft in talent and will be one of the best stat lines. But maybe not top 5 in assets. That being said, having Caulfield above those guys is atleast defensible. That list is just wow. Imagine having Cozens and Zegras in the tip 10 in 2025. They probably just went on the hockeydb draft page and looked at the stats.

Safe was open and security was down?

Has Malkin run afoul of money woes?

Hutson really is going to be a force for years to come. 35 points in 43 games is insane for a 20 year old rookie.

He looks like Hughes clone but we'll see in 2-3 years if he can mantain this.

The question will be if he can develop his defensive game like Hughes did, but for now he's outscoring his problems.

Yea can't blame the Habs fans for hyping up Hutson and comparing him to Quinn Hughes, his offensive production as a rookie D is actually better than Hughes' (in terms of point per game anyways). Even if Hutson doesn't develop at all from here on, he will be an among the top scoring D for the next decade. I wouldn't count him out from improving his defensive game either. Habs have a good one in him.

[Jerry the great]

that's what you get for stealing Malkin's rings!!

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

It's a shame because he would be a decent 1B goaltender for a franchise behind a decent defense. That contract Dubas gave out to him was absolutely stupid though.

 

[Raistlin]

they dropped the ball big time not trading him earlier when he still had value.
