This just in, Pittsburgh Penguins superstar Evgeni Malkin will officially re-join the Pens roster tonight when they take on the Philadelphia Flyers. Malkin has been out with a lower body injury for the past 23 games.


Needless to say, Malkin will be a welcome addition to a Penguins team that has gone 7-2-1 in their last 10 games. Sidney Crosby has been on fire. Jake Guentzel has been on fire. And now... Geno!? Not bad. For what it's worth, Malkin has eight goals and 24 points in 29 games with the Penguins so far this season. And now he's joining the team just in time to get ramped up for the playoffs. If I'm a fan of anyone else in the East Division, I'm very, very, VERY nervous.
