Errrrr a contender eh

 

[Seachd]

Contend away, Ilya.

 

[BonMorrison]

Welp.

 

[Extra Texture]

Thank god he's going there, I had a sinking feeling Rutherford wasn't going to be able to help himself.

 

[dubey]

Reeks of desperation lol

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

pretty funny

 

[filthyMitz]

How will this help get Lafreniere?

 

[Captain Mountain]

Wow, I did not see that coming. I guess it kind of makes sense given Montreal is missing their top 2 RWers (plus Drouin and Byron).

 

[Warden of the North]

Couldnt convince Jagr out of retirement I guess.

 

[Hunter368]

Ewwww

 

[Hitemwith4]

What ? wow

 

[Nizdizzle]

Kovalchuk is playing 4D chess and we're all here playing checkers. What the heck is the move here?

 

[Kairi Zaide]

How will this help get Lafreniere?

[Captain Mountain]

How will this help get Lafreniere?

Kovalchuk was utter garbage in LA, it likely wont hurt.

 

[mikeg]

Ca sent la coupe!!

 

[Kranix]

To play Centre

 

[HOPE]

Hahaha, at least we will be able to see an elite player wear the habs jersey!

on a serious note i think he’ll help us on the PP!

 

[Hockey Stick]

This is hilarious

 

[A1LeafNation]

Montreal just got worse

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Im gonna go out on a limb and say this isn't going to push the Habs into the playoffs but interesting experiment from both sides.

 

[Evgeny Oliker]

I get the move for Montreal.

I don’t get why Kovalchuk did this. I thought he wanted to play for a contender??

 

[dsf]

Kovalchuk: tank commander?

 

[vancityluongo]

Kovalchuk is 5'8???

 

[CapSpace]
