Report of Malkin Signing Premature

The signing of Evgeni Malkin has not officially taken place. It still should not be a difficult one to complete, as Malkin will command the maximum salary for his draft class. There are apparently a couple of last minute details to work out with the actual transfer agreement and he cannot sign until they are completed. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks that it could be done and the team is waiting until Saturday to announce it at the entry draft in Vancouver, but it is just that, a conspiracy!
