Wamsley01 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 If this is true Gainey is blowing this up. We all know that Kovy will sulk for weeks and torpedo the playoffs if he passes through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Are you serious? Can anyone confirm this? No credible hockey news site has reported it. Rds, TSN, Sportsnet, Score. It must be a mistake and Eklund proves his stupidity again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBHabs_fan Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 God no.....he wouldnt pass through at this point though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Eklund has changed his heading. It was, KOVALEV ON WAIVERS Now, Kovalev on waivers? Dumbass guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I doubt it's true. The move makes no sense. Kovalev DOES have trade value and there's no reason for Gainey to get rid of him anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Well accept the fact he makes 4.5 mill more then me and he only has 13 more goals. That is a good reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Nasty Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Eklund has been screwing the pooch all week. With the exception of Tkachuk going to Atlanta he hasn't got anything right I was starting to like him but he is falling fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wamsley01 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 temporary excitement there for a minute Not for getting rid of Kovy, but for something BIG going down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Nasty Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I wouldn't doubt Gainey is trying to move him in favor of using his salary on a guy with a better attitude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 (edited) Eklund has been screwing the pooch all week. With the exception of Tkachuk going to Atlanta he hasn't got anything right I was starting to like him but he is falling fast Not to defend Eklund (I don't care if he has connections or what have you) but the story was first reported by Associated Press, and then picked up by USA today...he was just reporting what he saw, which you would expect from a dude with a hockey site. Eklund should have been quicker to notice the error but it's not like he made it up. Edited February 26, 2007 by Talon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBHabs_fan Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Being reported on both TSN and The Score....brutal. I cant imagine how bad it must be, for Koivu to miss this game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Well accept the fact he makes 4.5 mill more then me and he only has 13 more goals. That is a good reason. A reason to get rid of him maybe. But there's no sense waiving hi mwhen we can get something back in a trade for him. He'd get us more than what Rivet got us, most likely.

REV-G Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 Associated press first reported it and USA.com picked it up, but it's false, they made a mistake. Evidently they mixed up Downey on waivers to make room for others and one of the others was Kovalev returning to the lineup tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Makes no difference, no one would pick him up anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaze53 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 (edited) Makes no difference, no one would pick him up anyways. Why would anyone not pickup Kovy? :?- -->That doesn't mean I wanted any other damn team to pick him up from waivers though lol Edited February 26, 2007 by blaze53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
