Evgeni Malkin Dropped the Gloves with a 7-Year-Old Russian Hockey Player at a Charity Game

Evgeni Malkin was in Russia recently to participate in a charity event hosted by Ilya Kovalchuk. Things took a dark and ugly turn when Malkin and a seven-year-old fan decided it was time to settle their differences via an old-time hockey fight.

Who am I kidding? This was a fake fight. Good times were had by all. The crowd, in particular, seemed to eat up the theatrics from the Penguins star and lucky child pugilist.
