History was made in the GVFHL this season as Pittsburgh Penguins star forward Evgeni Malkin broke the single season scoring record, putting up 109 points in 80 games. Malkin broke the previous record, formerly set by Patrick Kane, by 8 points. When asked about the achievement, Malkin had this to say:
“I am score”.
In a recent interview, Penguins GM Jordan Richards stated:
“Geno breaking the scoring record is a great accomplishment, both for him and our organization. Geno is a key piece to our team and our captain, when he’s confident and on his game he is the biggest difference maker in the league. He was for this season, and our record reflected that”.
With the Art Ross locked up and having likely earned a nomination for the Hart Trophy, Geno will now set his sights on the Conn Smythe Trophy, and more importantly bringing a GVFHL championship to Pittsburgh.
