The Los Angeles Kings gave Ilya Kovalchuk a team to think about over the long haul summer. Unfortunately, he won't be able to think about them any longer. That's right, the Kings have backed out from the Kovalchuk plans a second time after not agreeing to his terms of a long-year, multi-year contract. Actually, I don't know why they backed out. I only know they did back out for some reason. Now that Kovalchuk is out of luck with the Los Angeles Kings, does he return to the New Jersey Devils or is there some teams that are willing to take a chance on him? I don't think there is any other team willing to take that chance on him, so it looks like the New Jersey Devils are the best fit for them. After all, they are the favorites to sign them after trading for him from the Atlanta Thrashers. According to the New York Post, the Devils are on the verge of signing him to a six-year, $60 million deal. It has not come to fruition yet, but to my best guess it looks like he will take that contract. He played a spectacular second-half for the New Jersey Devils, even though they came up short in the playoffs. To my estimate, Kovy will have another remarkable season playing for a team that can go to the playoffs every year. A new coach might be tough but for Kovy, who's been through at least one season with a new coach at his reigns, he'll have no trouble at all scoring goals and making good plays on the ice. We'll see what happens with Kovy. Will he take the deal? Or is it off to the KHL?
