PITTSBURGH, PA – Following Saturday's 4-0 loss to the New Jersey Devils, Evgeni Malkin was quick to air frustrations about his teammates to the media.

He described them as not playing right, and being "mad at each other". Media outlets across the continent took the comments to mean the team's recent play on the ice was not up to par. However, an anonymous source in the Penguins' organization has indicated that this is not the case.
