According to my buddy Tom Gulitti’s twitter, the arbitrator has ruled in favor of the league in the Ilya Kovalchuk case.

In other words, his contract has been rejected and he’s an unrestricted free agent again.

Click the head…

Well, today there’s the Ilya Kovalchuk decision, we think. Or everybody thinks. It will be very, very interesting going forward if the arbitrator rules that the NHL was just to nullify the Devils’ clever, but apparently legal, contract.

It’s really getting slow now, isn’t it? It’s the annual calm before the training camp storms.
