Evgeni Malkin was named the NHL Rookie of the Month for October, despite not even debuting until the 18th of the month. According to the AP, the kid beat out Kings center Anze Kopitar, San Jose Sharks defenseman Matt Carle and Colorado Avalanche center Peter Stastny for the honor. Is Malkin worthy of the honor, despite his limited participation this month? And how long until everyone's officially sick of hearing how great he is / will be?
