This year's best player hasn't gotten near the accolades that his fellow country mate Alex Ovechkin or his fellow teammate Sidney Crosby have been receiving but for anyone who's been watching closely Evgeni Malkin is the NHL's best player this year.
The man affectionately known as Geno can do it all: score, make brilliant passes, play the physical game, rush the puck coast-to-coast,backcheck, kill penalties. Now you can add cook perogies and flirt with Russian Hockey legend Igor Larionov's stunning daughter, Alyonka to the list.
Malkin is an untapped marketing resource for the NHL and as his command of the English language improves, he'll be better able to display his great sense of humour and joking nature that makes him a hit with his teammates. I mean who doesn't love a good LeBron James impression?!
