Halfway through March, it was shaping up as a forgettable month for Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin. On March 16, Malkin was riding a six-game pointless streak and had just one goal and two assists in the seven games to start the month. But now, Malkin is in the midst...

Evgeni Malkin didn’t have anything to say Sunday. The hat trick and assist he recorded in the Penguins’ 11-2 rout of the Detroit Red Wings at PPG Paints Arena spoke volumes. But Malkin was not available for comment after the game. He hasn’t spoken with media for the better part...
