[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 2986001, member: 2012"] [COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=3][B]Report: Penguins begin talks with Malkin[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] [B]TSN.ca Staff with Pittsburgh Tribune-Review files[/B] [I]8/3/2006 11:21:30 AM[/I] [B]The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports that the Penguins and Evgeni Malkin's agent are opening contract negotiations, paving way for the much heralded prospect to be in the lineup on opening night.[/B] The news comes after NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly told the paper that there will be no transfer agreement between the Russian Hockey Federation and the NHL for this upcoming season, but noted that if players currently on contract with Russian teams can secure their own release, they could still sign with NHL teams this season. "The (NHL) announced that clubs would be free to sign players given that (Russia has) not been able to agree to a transfer agreement, and, as a result, we're going to move ahead and negotiate with Pittsburgh," Malkin's agent, Don Meehan, told the Tribune Review on Wednesday. "That's a priority for us now." The NHL gave the Russian Ice Hockey Federation until Monday to sign a transfer deal that was negotiated and ratified in June. Daly told the Tribune-Review that they were moving ahead with a deal signed last summer that involves other European hockey nations. "There is no longer a possibility of an agreement this year that will involve the Russian Federation joining our existing player transfer agreement," Daly said. But Daly added that does not necessarily mean that Russian players cannot come to the NHL. Malkin, taken second overall by the Penguins in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft, is under contract to his Russian team, Metallurg Magnitogorsk, through 2008. But a provision in Russian labor law allows employees to leave if two weeks' written notice is given. "We have followed the provision under that law, and we've given the appropriate notice," said Meehan. "Now, the next step after that would be to negotiate with Pittsburgh." Meehan added that he has already spoken with Penguins general manager Ray Shero. [/QUOTE]
