The Pittsburgh Penguins Evgeni Malkin has great news regarding his missing Stanley Cup rings. The Alleghany County police department has found them.
Three-time Stanley Cup champion Evgeni Malkin was in for a rude awakening this week, losing every Stanley Cup ring he won.
A significant piece of history for the Penguins player, who has been a staple in the team's top six.
Malkin experienced a break-in this past Saturday when the Penguins traveled to Ottawa to take on the Senators.
An investigation found a safe left open, and the alarm was not functioning as it should have
The rings, which were fortunately still located inside Malkin's residence according to the Allegheny County Police Department.
«I would like to express my gratitude to the Allegheny County Police, the Sewickley Heights Police and the entire Penguins organization,» Malkin said in a statement Thursday. «The outpouring of support and concern from my teammates and fans over the past few days means so much to my family and I.»
Malkin's home invasion signals a trend in troubling news, as he is the second NHLer to be targeted with a robbery after the Dallas Stars' Tyler Seguin's home was robbed.
Malkin won three Stanley Cups with the Penguins during the 2009, 2016, and 2017 NHL seasons.
He was selected 2nd overall during the 2004 NHL Draft and was another key piece added to the Penguins' lineup, only a year after the team selected goalie Marc Andre-Fleury.
In addition to his three Stanley Cups, he has a 2006-2007 Calder Trophy, two Art Ross Trophies, a Hart Trophy, and a Conn Smythe Trophy.
He is one of the longest-tenured Penguins players, along with Sidney Crosby, and Kris Letang.
A remnant of the former Stanley Cup-winning team, and as time passes it won't ever look the same or be the same again, unfortunately.
Those rings symbolized a time when Malkin won it all, put it all on the line for the Penguins, and came back with the toughest trophy in sports to win.
It's great that he was able to find them again, with no issue.
How much longer will we see Malkin, Sid, and Letang in the NHL on the Penguins?
