NBH would like to congratulate Evgeni Malkin on his new contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Malkin and the Penguins have come to an agreement on a new five year extension that will take effect starting in the 2009-10 season.

The 21 year old center finished second in the league in scoring last season with 106 points and then added 22 points in 20 playoff games. Malkin's 47 goals and 59 assists were both career highs, as he helped lead the Penguins back to the Cup Finals for the first time since 1992.

You can be sure that Penguins fans are extremely excited to have Malkin locked up for the next six years and that they'll be able to continue watching the superstar in action every night.
