In 2018, Denis Malgin established career high statistics all across the board, registering a slash line of 11G, 11A, for 22 points on the season (played in 51 games).
Malgin’s sophomore season was certainly encouraging and the Florida Panthers had high expectations for the native of Switzerland heading into 2019.
However, in terms of offensive statistics, Malgin’s numbers actually decreased which highlighted a clear regression in performance.
In only 50 regular-season contests, Denis Malgin produced an underwhelming line of 7G, 9A, for 16 points on the year for Florida.
Essentially, his inconsistencies on the offensive end resulted in a reduced role and less playing time.
