Seems like it. The Athletic had a good article on it.

“These SATGs are reportedly well-organized, sophisticated rings that incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices,”

Maybe it’s just me, but I thought it was a play on words

I expect they sell them to well-heeled criminals and oligarchs, who show them off to impress their pals.

Or they just pry the jewels out and sell them separately, sell the gold as scrap. I don't think this was some mastermind heist.

Malkin probably keeps his rings in the safe and/or his wife keeps her rings in there too. But maybe its a pain in the ass to keep locking and unlocking and they got lax and kinda just leave it open unless they are on a trip.

The security system being down is interesting though.

Wonder if there's a russian oligarch out there sending a message? Or Putin himself?

Have you seen the extreme's the championship jewelry is going to now? They'll just pop off all the diamonds gems and sell the parts individually.

Sorry, but if I had Malkin money, I would have full time security and an old timey butler.

That's what I just said.

Yeah but wouldn’t you lower your risk of getting caught by removing all the jewels and selling them off?

Hell you could even have the precious metals melted down and sell those too. Now there’s a winning idea.

Yes, that's why I said it.

You know, if I was the thieves I don’t think I would sell the rings as a whole. It would be safer to piece the jewels out individually.

Update:

The rings were found inside the house.

The police have narrowed their list of suspects to Flyers fans.
