Interesting....need to follow this as he is sitting on the waiver wire right now in my league! I don't want him if nothing changes, but if he plays beside Malkin EVERYTHING changes! haha
Talks heating up again?
The Penguins could be looking for a winger to play with Evgeni Malkin, and they could once again be looking at Maple Leafs Nikolai Kulemin. The Penguins asked about him last year, and apparently had a 1st round pick on the table, which was turned down by Brian Burke. The Penguins had 2 scouts at the Leafs-Hurricanes game on Monday.

Interesting, could see that happening. But since Malkin already has Neal, shouldn't that article say the Penguins could be looking for a winger to play with Crosby?

I'm reviving this thread because Kulemin was just dropped in my league. Not sure if a waiver pick for him makes sense, but I used to like his game a lot and if he gets traded to Pitts.....look out.
So....anyone hear any more on these rumours?

Would be nice for Malkin. No idea what the price would be for him. It can't be super high.

I have a feeling this would turn out better than when Poni went over to the Pens at the deadline.
So its safe to say that the Zach Boychuk experiment is on the way out. Boychuk hasnt worked with EStaal and now doesnt click with Malkin and Neal. Doesnt say much for his career going forward. I'm not going to say his career is over, but it certainly looks tainted.
I think Kulemin would fit in nicely alongside Malkin and Neal. Now if the Pens could only find some better wingers to play with Sid, they would be set!
