Re: Those sneaky Russians
by Sairah on Thursday, August 17, 2006 he is in LA with his agents J.P. Barry and Pat Brisson. Barry said the reason for the cloak-and-dagger was because Metallurg controlled Malkin’s passport and this was the only situation where he could get the proper documents to leave. Malkin reportedly received his passport from the U.S. Embassy in Helsinki on Wednesday, shortly before his flight to California. Just what the NHL needs...a little scandal to get the stock car racing...trampoline basketball watching americans a little bit interested!  I personally think a few more NHL'ers should hit up Paris Hilton... its good for the league! 
by Snoz on Thursday, August 17, 2006 Whats this about Montreal tabling an offer? how excited am I?
by Kerrzy on Friday, August 18, 2006 Yeah after all this though, I don't see it happening really.
by Snoz on Sunday, August 20, 2006 O i highly doubt the PEns would send him away, but any idea what the deal was? Im a Habs fan so I just like to hope
by Kerrzy on Sunday, August 20, 2006 I believe the rumour was as follows: Ryder, Ribeiro, Souray, Aebischer and a first-round pick ... for Malkin
by Newf on Sunday, August 20, 2006 thats not even close to worth it.... the habs would have to give the pens their whole organization for malkin, and even then the pens might turn them down.
by Snoz on Monday, August 21, 2006 haah yea, only real loss in that is really just Ryder who I think can turn into a solid player in the years to come. From last year. I was expecting to see like Koivu/Kovalev/some of their younger Euros they have playing, if the Pens take a deal like that for Malkin, they don't deserve to be an organization.
by Kerrzy on Monday, August 21, 2006 haha yeah totally. I think I'm just more surprised that it was an ACTUAL confirmed offer by the Habs
by Snoz on Monday, August 21, 2006 Thats insane, where did you see this? or is it some Kerrzy report insider site that use public can't see? by frankthetank69 on Friday, October 06, 2006 who hit up paris Hilton? |

SO, Malkin was in Helsinki the whole time.
I guess the joke is on those of us who spent the first half of the week talking about all the places in North America he might be…in Washington with Alexander Ovechkin is the one I heard the most.
Someone talked to Ovechkin, turns out he wasn’t even in Washington, but rather in Toronto, and so the rumor city became Toronto.
Malkin was rumored to be in one of five or six North American cities, having flown out of Helsinki on the first flight he could get out of Finland, ditching from Mettallurg Magnitogork in a blaze of glory. “Defecting†– and hey, even I got suckered into using that word.
