Alex Kovalev invited to Panthers camp

[Erick*]

I don't have a problem with the invite, but expecting him to be the player he was with all the skill, etc. is rather delusional at this point.

He put up 6 points (1 goal) in 22 games in the KHL last year.

Competition is nice, but I see no reason to be excited at all about his "skill" and "talent" right now.

Dineen on Alex...
"When we played Alex, he was on real quality teams that were extremely high powered, whether it was the Rangers with Mark Messier and Adam Graves or Pittsburgh with Jaromir Jagr and the boys there, a lot of times I focused on shutting [Kovalev] down,'' Dineen said. "You know what kind of talent he has. More importantly, what a professional he is with his skill and will. We'll take a good look at him next week. The possibilites with him as a player are endless, so we're excited to have him.'' \

Most excellent, I'll be one disappointed SOB if he doesn't don the red.

Just hit me...I just can't believe my favorite player of the last 19 years is at my local rink of places in the world and I'm stuck in NY. ****.

Can someone photoshop me the red and white jerseys with his name on it?
