Evgeni Malkin has 10 points (4G-6A) in 13 games since coming back from the 4 Nations break. With a helper on Saturday, he matched Anze Kopitar for the 13th-most assists with a single franchise in NHL history, one behind Henrik Sedin for 12th.
Sidney Crosby has been scorching hot, topping the league in goals (5) and second in points (8) in his last five games. On home ice, he's on an 11-game point run (6G-10A-16P), the third-most active streak in the NHL.
