Evgeni Malkin photobombs James Neal after hat trick

He’s at it again!

Apparently few things please Evgeni Malkin more than photobombing Pittsburgh Penguins teammate James Neal.

His hilarious photobombing debut came just two days ago, but he followed up that performance with another great interruption on Sunday.

While Neal was being interviewed about his hat trick against the Columbus Blue Jackets, Malkin appeared out of nowhere and stole the show.

THAT FACE. It’s perfect.
