GDT: Around the NHL Weekend of March (21-22) 2015


Recommended Posts

European media is reporting that former ‪Devils‬ star Ilya Kovalchuk wants to return to the ‪‎NHL‬ as soon as possible as his ‪KHL‬ contract (that lost 50% of its value) expires this season. Of course Kovalchuk, who famously retired from the NHL several years ago with a new $77M new contract, would have to go though a process to get back into the league. The earliest return would be 2016 but Kovalchuk would need to sit out from pro hockey for a full year and get approval from every NHL team including the Devils. However after Kovy's 35th birthday, he can return to the NHL in 2018-19 with no rules thanks to the leagues retirement rules changing after players' 35th birthdays.
