Malkin logged an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 2-1 exhibition loss against Detroit.
Malkin is on the back end of his career, but the left-shot center should be in store for another productive season when taking into account his role on the team. The 38-year-old will occupy his usual spot on the second line while skating with the first power-play unit. Malkin banked 27 goals and 67 points across 82 regular-season games in 2023-24.
