There's a Deadline Looming ... and it's Not for Signing Malkin

The deadline for signing players is Wednesday. Ron Hextall is negotiating with Evgeni Malkin. The Pittsburgh Penguins have a lot of players who will become free agents. Kasperi Kapanen and Danton Heinen are the most intriguing players. They are eligible for salary arbitration. The Penguins only have about $15.3 million in salary-cap space. It's unlikely that all of them will be qualified before the deadline. If they are, they will get the minimum offer. There is a chance they could be awarded a contract that could sabotage the team's salary structure.
