Penguins tie up Malkin until 2013-14: Evgeni Malkin is staying in Pittsburgh for quite some time. The Penguins signed the MVP finalist to a five-year extension worth $43.5 million on Wednesday, a deal that will keep him under contract until the 2013-14 season. The 21-year-old forward still has one year left on his initial three-year, entry level contract. His deal is equal to one signed by teammate Sidney Crosby that begins with the upcoming season.

Fantasy Analysis
Malkin is likely to be a second-round pick in most Fantasy drafts this season, but could even go in the first after his massive 2007-08 season. Sidney Crosby will always take away some goals from the Russian star, but he's too good to ignore. (Updated 07/02/2008).
