The Pittsburgh Penguins had a familiar face back on the ice Tuesday morning, as centre Evgeni Malkin skated with the team. ... Zelalem Arsenal Jersey . Malkin suffered an upper-body injury a week and a half ago after taking a hit from James van Riemsdyk in the third period of their shootout win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. Malkin, who missed four games with a concussion late last month, had just returned to the lineup. "I feel good, practicing with the team the first time," Malkin said Tuesday. "I feel pretty good. Just the next step to getting healthy." Malkin will not play Tuesday night when the Penguins play host to the Washington Capitals but is hopeful to play Friday on Long Island. In 21 games this season, Malkin has five goals and 19 assists for 24 points. The Penguins will also be without defenceman Kris Letang on Tuesday. Letang is day-to-day with a lower body injury Pittsburgh sits first in the Eastern Conference, with a two-point cushion on the Montreal Canadeins. . -- Scott Clemmensen got the best of the Montreal Canadiens yet again.

Bedoya USA Jersey . -- Second-ranked Western kept its undefeated season in tact by using its dominant ground game to run past No.In Week 3 of our "Tweet Bag" series, there was a lot of talk about Andrea Bargnani and how badly many fans want him gone. I got flooded with trade scenarios and opinions, so that is touched on in this weeks Tweet Bag, along with some talk about perceived sleights by the referees. @MiguelPachecoLots of Internet talk about the Raps getting hosed by the refs recently, specifically Demar....do you agree? Heading into Sundays game against the Magic, Toronto ranked 16th in the league in free throw attempts per game (23.7) and DeMar DeRozan ranked 11th in the whole NBA in free throw attempts per game (5.7) - so no, I dont think the Raptors are getting hosed. I think if the Raptors are getting the short end of the stick in any foul-related area its with Jonas Valanciunas, and thats to be expected since hes a rookie big man who plays an aggressive style of ball. His problem is he is learning how to avoid calls while still playing his game. He finds himself too often in 50-50 situations where a ref can call a foul and has to use his or her judgement as to whether or not to do it. Being a rookie with a reputation for aggressive play, hes rarely given the benefit of the refs judgement. As time goes on hell learn the subtler art of positioning not only to get stops and rebounds but also to avoid getting calls in the process. @PHDMACHeres a thought..not one Im certain about yet. Bargnani for Stoudemire Ive gotten flooded with trade scenarios for Andrea Bargnani since hes started the season so slowly, so really Im using this question as a template to answer a lot of others. First, the Raptors are not going to assume much risk in a return for Bargnani. After this season, Bargnani has only two seasons left on his deal, with the last being at Bargnanis discretion as he has the right to terminate the final year of his contract. As a result, the Raptors dont feel overburdened by having him around. They arent desperate to get rid of him, and so a team is not going to be able to dump their trash on Toronto thinking that they club is eager to part with Bargnani. Second, anyone they got to replace Bargnani at power forward has to, first and foremost, make sense alongside Valanciunas and DeRozan. That means that they have to land someone who can space the floor with his jump shott, opening up the paint for post-ups and drives. [url=http://www.worldsocceronlineshop.com/Liverpool-Fc-Krisztian-Adorjan-Jersey.... Adorjan Liverpool Jersey[/url]. They need a guy who fits the personality that the team is trying to establish, which means effort and hustle are prerequisites. Also, if possible, they should see if they can land a solid passer at the position, too, as the club lacks facilitators and it has shown in the clubs difficulties at the offensive end. Lastly and most importantly, though, is that the club would need to be taking a step forward with any trade involving Bargnani. While fans can possess the snide attitude that any trade would be better than keeping Bargnani around, that isnt true. He isnt playing well right now, but he isnt dead weight, either. Bargnani still has supporters in the organization even if he isnt a great fit with the direction of the team. They arent simply going to cut-and-run with him. They dont need a better player in return for Bargnani, just a better fit. They wont get Paul Millsap, but hes a perfect example of what the team needs: hard work, floor spacing and strong defensive fundamentals. @ryley_bWhy PF when we need a 3? (in reference to a return for Bargnani) The Raps have need of a small forward, its true, but if they trade away Bargnani theyd need a starting-calibre power forward even more. Heres the thing; if DeMar DeRozan has really turned a corner then the need for a high-scoring three has dimmed somewhat since last summer. If you believe in DeRozans development then what you really need at the three is a stellar defender who can hit the corner three and pass the ball. The Raptors think that they have that in Landry Fields, and at least want to see him play post-surgery before they make up their mind on him one way or another. If you dont believe in DeRozans development... well, that doesnt really matter because the Raptors management does. So, that being the case, the priority if Bargnani is traded would be replacing him. Amir Johnson and Ed Davis are far too limited to anchor the frontcourt for the Raptors, and Valanciunas is too young. Now, since the Raptors are also angling to trade Jose Calderon this season, there is the chance to replace Bargnani in a subsequent deal, but thats getting pretty far ahead of the curve since Bargnani isnt even officially on the trading block yet.
