With Sidney Crosby out with a sprained ankle, Evgeni Malkin has stepped up his game.  Malkin is currently playing the best hockey of his career. In the past 10 games, he has scored 8 Goals, along with 13 Assits for a total of 21 Points during that stretch.  Malkin now has 73 Points and tied for fouth place in the scoring race with Ovetchkin leading with 76 Points.  If Malkin continues to play like this, I think he has a great chance of taking the Art Ross Trophy this season.
