Pittsburgh Penguins engage is 'pure sports terrorism'If it gets Evgeni Malkin into a Penguins Jersey...I'm all for it.
Basicall (if you don't check out the other links). Evgeni Malkin is the best player in the Russian Super League but was drafted by the Penguins 2004. He signed a new contract with his Russian League team but wants to play in the NHL (his contract commits him for 1 more year). Him and his team travel to Finland for a training camp. As soon as he gets his passports, he flees to North America and turns up in LA with his agents. RSL is super pissed that the NHL is taking their best players.
Russia declairs war on NHL My opinion...let him play where he wants to play (league wise). Not to mention the Penguins are my favorite team and I'd love to have him at second line center behind phenom Sidney Crosby. But i'm not biased... ;)
