Atlanta isnt going to beat anyone with that style of play. They would have To add around Malkin to keep him happy and they dont have the money to pay Malkin and the needed accessories, did anyone not watch the Kovalchuk Thrashers the last few years? Atlanta needs to build some credibility and a fan base before they start bringing in superstar caliber players, and they have to keep the budget down while doing it.
