Breaking News! Russia to Sign Transfer Agreement!

Per Russian Hockey Digest, it is being reported that Russian Hockey Federation President Vladislav Tretiak has convinced the management of the Russian Superleague Clubs to sign the Transfer agreement with the NHL. As most Pittsburgh Penguin fans know, this should knock the door wide open for Evgeni Malkin to arrive in the NHL next season.

This will allow the Pittsburgh Penguins to have one of the most formidable 1-2 punches at the center position. Both Malkin and Sidney Crosby are poised to be superstars in the NHL for many years to come! This is a very exciting day for hockey in Pittsburgh.

This move will probably help the draft stock of a couple of Russians hoping to be selected in the June 25 entry draft such as: Vladimir Zharkov and Alexander Vasyunov. Look for both players to go a bit higher than they may have a few days ago.
