He's also at the end of a contract, which means for him to get the kind of money or whatever he's going to have to.

And if he does do well in the postseason and he's a reason why they get far, man, all of a sudden his money opportunity gets higher.

Right.

No, I think it's going to be interesting to see.

I would say right now that the Penguins are in the driver's seat.

They're still a way to go.

Tonight's going to be a tough one.

Tampa Bay's a team I don't think they necessarily match up well against.

They have a goaltending advantage there based on what Vasilevsky gives them.

And they're still in a battle.

They're two points behind Buffalo with Montreal right up behind them looking to overtake them.

They could end up in third in that division.

So therefore, the first line, as we know it, is together.

So there you go.

Chinnikoff's back with Malkin, which I like that.

And I think we were talking earlier, if Chinnikoff will be back, he's restricted, but they're going to make him back.

I mean, it makes no sense not to.

What does this do for Malkin's –

status here because I think they would want him back, but especially with a guy like Chinnikoff.

He has this tremendous chemistry.
