If there is going to be a must-follow during the lockout, it is @dchesnokov. He tweeted this out late Sunday night.
#KHL Magnitogorsk VP tells SovSport he spoke w/Crosby's reps re: "hypothetical" of him playing w/Malkin in Russia; no negotiations." #Pens

There has been some talk that Malkin is trying to recruit Crosby to the Russian club. One possible issue is Crosby would have to secure a signficant insurance policy to do so.
Should be really interesting to see how this plays out.
