This is really bad news for the Pittsburgh Penguins, Malkin is one of the Penguins top forwards. Sidney Crosby has been out with a concussion since January 5th, so the injuries are starting to pill up for the Penguins.
NHL.COM --- Head coach Dan Bylsma told the media that Evgeni Malkin has a torn ACL and MCL.
"Evgeni Malkin had an MRI this morning. The results show that he has a torn MCL and ACL. At this point in time we are discussing options with the doctors on what to do next.
"This is a difficult injury for him. It was kind of a fluke situation going into the boards with a guy. That's a tough injury for Geno. We have dealt with games without him. We've managed to find our way without him. That's what we're going to have to look at now.
"We're discussing options with our doctor. Surgery is a possibility. I'm not sure if there is a rehab possibility. But right now I just got the news on the MRI."
