via TSN,
Ilya Kovalchuk’s days as a member of the Atlanta Thrashers appear to be numbered.
Thrashers general manager Don Waddell met with the star forward on Wednesday and told him to expect a trade to another NHL team over the next few hours or days.
added 3:44pm, via Dan Rosen of NHL.com,
The Kings, Bruins, Rangers, Flyers and Blackhawks are reportedly interested, but all the stories we’re seeing now do not include the Flyers and Blackhawks.
added 3:55pm, via a Tweet from Bob McKenzie,
Teams in mix for Kovalchuk include: Boston, New Jersey, Rangers, Philadelphia, Calgary, Chicago and L.A. Some more. Some less. Auction time.
added 4:06pm, via a Tweet from Craig Custance,
Kovy very much in play, but I’m being told that the Blackhawks aren’t in the mix right now.
added 4:47pm, via a Tweet from Kevin Allen,
Thrashers’ want list hasn’t changed for Kovalchuk deal: they need players who can help now. There are interested teams we don’t know about
added 4:53pm, Another Tweet from McKenzie,
About a half dozen teams still in the mix for Kovalchuk. Likely to take at least another two or three days to sort itself out. No deadline.
