Evgeni Malkin has made it clear that he wants to return to the Pittsburgh Penguins despite his contract being up and sending him to free agency.
On Tuesday, the Penguins added their own thoughts to the situation.
GM Kyle Dubas had this to say about Malkin, via the team:
"We had a great exit interview with Evgeni directly, and great conversations with him and his agent J.P. Barry... So we would love to have him back, and we continue to work with J.P. on it."
The Penguins, up to this point, had yet to say so explicitly that they do indeed want Malkin back for the 2026-27 season.
Malkin turns 40 at the end of July, but the Penguins are the only NHL team he's ever known.
He's coming off a season in which he had 61 points in 56 games -- 19 goals and 42 assists.
