Default Kovalev could be done with the Panthers

Quote:
It appears as though Alex Kovalev's time with the Florida Panthers is over.
According to reports out of Florida, the 40-year-old winger did not make the trip with the team to Carolina to play the Hurricanes on Saturday. Reports state the Panthers are looking at other options and that an announcement is pending.

That's really odd. First time I've seen his name being used in the present tense in several years. He was still playing?

I'm terrified. Something tells me our third rounder is going to Florida for this bum.

He's getting bought out.

Kovalev is useless. Everyone knows it. After scoring 3 points opening night, he has 2 assists in 13 games.

His a winger & 40 years of age... Not part of our solution.

Former 20+ goal scorer? Check.
On the wrong side of 30? Check.
Winger? Check.
Best days are long behind him? Check.
Florida Panther? Check.

I expect Kovalev to be a Flame by the end of the weekend.

Kovalev sucks but he's won at this level and has tallent, he's just lazy. Maybe they wanted him to be there for some of the younger guys or that he would want it more for some reason.

Ottawa's probably on the phone making arrangements. Either them or Montreal (though their new GM doesn't seem to take lightly to loafters). My guess is the Sens.

Kovalev hated Ottawa and his play showed it. I doubt the Sens want to deal with that again.

Although, there's a good chance that was Clouston-related.

Didnt he say that the only reason he signed with the Sens was to be close to or play in Montreal?

Maybe Kovalev can go to Carolina and take Semin's "How to get motivated for hockey" course.
