Ilya, explain the reasons for your decision? Ilya Kovalchuk: I think the trick in the NHL I did - the prospect in our country, in our league.
Of course, the fans believe that you will play at the Olympic Games in Sochi.
Ilya Kovalchuk: It's very important for me, as for every Russian. This is our Olympics and I dream to play for his country and win! And what a good goal!
In which NHL team you continue your career?
Ilya Kovalchuk: You'll soon find out. Hold on a couple of days.
From the Editor
According to our data, Ilya Kovalchuk is going to sign a contract with SKA St. Petersburg in the next two years. The contract amount was not disclosed.
You heard it in English here first folks, he'll sign with them in the next two years. I feel like I just accomplished a whole lot of nothing.
