More like man with no sources.
I think a 25 year contract is more fitting this timeMaybe he will offer him 17year contract again
I'm not really sure how newsworthy this is since I think everyone assumed he'd be back when his contract was up with New Jersey anyways, this just confirms it.
Fresh off an Olympic gold medal and MVP award, rumored destinations have usually been with the Rangers, Florida's been mentioned too. Any guesses?
5 years out of the league, age 35.
“I congratulate Pasha, he deserved that. It is very honourable to be a member of the Triple Gold Club He is a real captain of the team, I am incredibly happy for him,” said 34-year-old Kovalchuk. “He will be 40 soon, and I still have five or six years, so I will be trying hard

Don’t want him near the Habs. Looks like a players MB will try to sign though. I hope not.
He won't be as good as he was when he left, but he'll still be a good Top6 Winger for whoever picks him up. Look for a Team that has a friend of his and can contend.
No, not really, if it's a big-dollar long-term commitment.You don’t want one of the best fwd outside the nhl and that just won a gold medal and that led his team to khl championships?
Lol these people saying he me not good anymore are so stupid. Garuntee he’s better than Radulov.

He can stay where he is at. The NHL should use him as an example and have no team sign him. All he wants now is a pay check.
I don’t think you need to worryDon’t want him near the Habs. Looks like a players MB will try to sign though. I hope not.
And what a top 5 it is!! Top 5 KHL scorers:He’s still top 5 in khl
They signed him to a dumb contract cause he made dumb demands. I mean, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out but hey, I'm sure Lou and Vanderbeek turned down a 8, 9 or 10 year deal and said to Kovalchuk... "Look, we want to screw over our franchise by offering you a 17 year deal. I know you want less term but we're just so eager to give you more, you know, cause it matches your jersey number. We would've went to 71 years if it were your number."
Sorry but I ain't taking the words of a Islander fan over mine, who actually knows what's going on with the franchise I've been rooting for since 1987 over a outsider who might have some knowledge on the Devils but nothing concrete. And I wouldn't act like a smart ass when referring to the Islanders since I'm no die hard Islander fan, like yourself I assume.
But hey, more power to you, you seem to have all the answers.
