Penguins' Evgeni Malkin Sees New-Look Rangers as 'a Danger Team'

So when the Rangers acquired Vladimir Tarasenko and Patrick Kane ahead of the March 3 trade deadline — adding to a group that already included Mika Zibanejad, Artemi Panarin, Igor Shesterkin and others — Malkin was impressed by what they had pieced together.

 

“It’s a danger team right now,” Malkin told The Post after the Penguins’ practice Friday at Chelsea Piers. “Every line is danger. They’re probably, like, best team in the league right now.”

 

The three-time Stanley Cup champion, who also won a Hart Trophy as the league’s MVP and won the Art Ross Trophy twice as its points leader, said the Rangers need more time to connect, since they’ve shuffled lines a handful of times.

Nice to hear they are in his head a lil bit....but it really doesn't matter. Tampa was the best team in the league and got knocked out in round 1 a few years ago.

 

Heart and talent wins championships. Yet to see if they have the former.
