The future of the "Big Three" in Pittsburgh seems to have been set in stone for a while, but THN's Adam Proteau suggests that the Penguins should cut ties with one of them before the 2025-26 season ends.
Why The Penguins Should Convince Star Center Evgeni Malkin To Accept A Trade
The Pittsburgh Penguins are essentially two different teams. The first <a href="http://thn.com/pittsburgh">Penguins</a> team is a veteran-laden squad featuring star forwards Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, and star defensemen Kris Letang and Erik Karlsson. And the second Pittsburgh team is the one that’s actively being planned for the future, featuring youngsters and prospects including wingers Rutger McGroarty and Ville Koivunen, and defensemen Owen Pickering and Harrison Brunicke.
Do you agree? Or is it more important for Malkin to finish his career in Pittsburgh on his terms? Let us know in the comments below!
