Evgeni Malkin

Evgeni Malkin, "Geno" to fans, is one of those players whose trophy case almost undersells him. A Hart, two Art Ross titles, the Calder, a Conn Smythe and a Ted Lindsay add up to a complete career, yet what impresses me most is the consistency of staying elite over so many years with Pittsburgh. At 190 cm he combines size with a deftness on the puck that feels almost unfair. I also like that he started at his hometown club in Magnitogorsk and never seemed to lose that thread, right down to national honours back home. Longevity at the top is the hardest trick in sport, and he has pulled it off.
