“I think it’s a good number, 71,” said Malkin, who wore 11 until he began playing for his hometown team Magnitogorsk. A veteran player already had it, so Malkin switched to 71 since it looked similar. “It’s not small, but not too big. We can’t go higher number because we can’t go over 87. You know rules [laughs].”

Malkin wanted to present this year’s check in person. Even though he’s heading out for the summer in just a couple of days, Malkin made time to stop at the Ronald McDonald House located adjacent to UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh to do so. It was a gesture inspired by Sidney Crosby, Malkin’s teammate for the entirety of his Penguins tenure.

“Players from the NHL try to do their best for charity, (as) team, individual... I see what Sid has done, I try learning, and now I know how important it is to be here today,” Malkin said. “Not just send the check, but see people, meet people, talk a little bit. It’s huge, too.”

@PensInsideScoop: After losing a shootout in practice, Sheazo provided service with a smile to teammates and staff on the last trip of the season - even though some were more difficult than others (we’re looking at you, Tanger 🤨

“This team named me captain, and I feel obligated to be a successful team here,” Hughes told Sportsnet. “That weighs heavily on me; I want to do something here.

“Like, they made me captain. Are you going to do what you said you would do? Are you going to help the situation and make this a successful organization? Obviously, one guy can't do that. But I definitely feel obligated, where that weighs heavy on my mind that they entrusted me with that. This year has been hard, and I want to find a way to put us in a situation where we can be really successful and ultimately win (a Stanley Cup). I appreciate the fans and the fact that there's never been a Cup in Vancouver. I definitely think about that quite a bit, as well.”

he’s staying in vancouver forever and ever and will bring us our first stanley cup <3 idc about the “quinn to new jersey!” narrative that some people think is compelling (it’s not) or the “there’s no way he’s staying” fear that so many canucks fans have started throwing around as if it’s a fact (it’s not). this is HIS team — they drafted him, and this is the city he has spent some of the most formative years of his life in. it’s where he is absolutely beloved by fans and knows that no matter what, the city is absolutely hockey-crazy will never stop caring about the team. that’s MY captain (to quote a certain other canuck) 🥹

Read an article about someone who was trying to be cute and using AI (gag me) to see if it would help them pick an NHL team to root for (spolier alert: it did not. who would've guessed). To combat this techbro thinking, I have complied an incomplete list of acceptable ways to pick an NHL team to root for:

Generational Trauma (i.e. your parent(s) infected you with this team)

That one friend (or mutual) who believes misery loves company and you were the one who caved (no suing them isn't possible)

Geography fucked you over

You think you'd look cute in the team colors

The social media team is on point

Living the Hater life (i.e. the enemy of my enemy is my friend, etc.)

You put pictures of all the team's logos on a wall and threw a dart

They have the exact right amount of Drama to Skill ratio to keep you hooked

You imprinted on one of these losers accidentally and now you care about the whole circus
