Flames, Rangers, Canucks or Capitals is my guess.

 

[Krett Bulak]

He could make alot of damage for a contending team! Good for him

 

[CartographerNo611]

Lou should make a run at him for the lols.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

I wonder if he comes out West.

He's about to be massively, massively overpaid based on past performance, but I'd say he's earned it with his loyalty to the Pens.

Would be amazing to have him play with Podkolzin and Kuzmenko but we don't have the space or ability to offer a long term deal. He probably gets $8-9 million per at least based on name value alone.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Capitals, Rangers and Avalanche. It will be one of those 3.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Wow the Pens are cruel.

 

[Richiebottles]

He's going to the Rangers.

 

[Viqsi]

I'm picking Flyers just for maximum cruelty.

 

[heretik27]

Capitals, Rangers and Avalanche. It will be one of those 3.

I like the idea of Ovy and Malkin together.

Capitals, Rangers and Avalanche. It will be one of those 3.

Unless he's signing for <$7m (in which case he would stay in Pittsburgh), there is no way for the Rangers to make it work.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Malkin and Panarin together would be absolutely filthy.

 

[CupInSIX]

He'll play with Ovie until they both retire in 4 years.

There was a quote where he wondered what it would be like if he wasn't in Sid's shadow. He wants to go head to head against him with their rivals.

This was the scene when Sid went to convince Gino to re-sign. Not good.

Welcome to Colorado!

Unless he's signing for <$7m (in which case he would stay in Pittsburgh), there is no way for the Rangers to make it work.

Not 100% sure if this is just about the money for him. He seems more upset about the way he was treated by management more than anything.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Kopitar/Malkin/Danault/Byfield down the middle.

 

[Roksta]

Ron Hextall is an absolute moron

 

[Toby Flenderson]

Wow. Unbelievable Malkin. Bad legacy move. Really disappointed as a pens fan

Great product placement!

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

I thought he wanted 4 years and that's what he got offered...

 

[LRS87]

Colarado.

He's now your Sergei Fedorov.

So what's the driving force here? Not happy with the money? Term? Team's performance as of late? Coaching staff? Front office? Teammates?
