Not that this is a bad move, given it is so low-risk, but what does it say about the depth of your team if you need to sign Kovalchuk to play in your top-6? Like you don't have anyone better than him within your organization?

43 points in last 81 games

for a putrid kings team


probably puts up .6 ppg on the second line in Montreal

which is normal second line production, and higher then all but 4 leaf guys up front right now

Go look at the significance of their injuries, and they have about 4 or 5 in Laval too

Geeeeezus EK. How is it that you can hear about Toews and Keith to LA for Doughty but something that is fisable like Kovy to Montreal can slip by totally un-noticed.
You only go after the big scoops

Its a pascals wager for the Habs.

Dang! Haven't thought of that since college. Good call!

Whenever you’re having a down day just looked at the Montréal Canadiens to lift your spirits and just make you laugh out loud what a joke good luck on this one

The only ones I've seen upset about this deal are a Kings "fan" and Leafs fans



Must be a W for the Habs

Problems is : Both moves are ok ( Kovy and Scandella), but should have taken place a month ago...now its too late...

I agree. Should've occurred when they were in the midst of that 8 game losing streak. With all the long term injuries it's going to be a tough hill to climb now

Call me spiteful but, I will never pull for this guy to succeed. Here is to your continued decline, kovy. Knowing you’ll never hoist the cup, brings me joy.

Which is where Kovalchuk would play if the Habs didn't have so many injuries...

Amen, brother!

Doesn't hurt when half the team is Laval right now. Bergy always wheeling and dealing. Best GM in the league

I mean, we had Weal on the PP for so long

Ideal usage for Kovalchuk should be on the 4th line with PP time , he's pretty much that kind of specialist at this stage of his career .

i guess the leafs weren't interested.

Yes, I work from a computer and probably make more in a day than you do in a month, pumpkin

Weal shouldn't even be on the team, let alone the PP. He was a welcome addition last year, he's been trash this year

Good deal for Kovi, get paid and then be off by April

plan the parade
- Tumbleweed

There's been a parade on standby sitting at Bruno's Pizza since 1996

This is a guy who has stayed way past his prime

much like the GM In Montreal....Bergevin has destroyed this team

Sell off the parts and start over

He is almost as bad as Mike Milbury

No it really doesn’t, this keeps his assets and maybe gets a guy who can possibly net a few goals. Myself I think this will be semin v 2.0 but fingers crossed it’s kovalev v 2.0.
